3-Homer Hat Trick for Lang
Monday, August 5th , 2024
Newport first baseman Jesse Lang blasted three homers at Naturals Grounds in the 10-4 Unicorns victory over the Greensboro Naturals.
For the game, Jesse Lang scored 3 times and knocked in 6 runs. When he hit his last home run, his teammates, hearing the crack of the bat, leaped off the bench and rushed on the field to greet the jubilant Lang when he reached home plate.
"It was just one game, but it sure was a lot of fun -- 3-for-5, three roundtrippers and a win," a gleeful Lang told BNN reporters in a postgame interview. "What a day."
Jesse Lang hit a two-run home run off Rafael Estrada in the 2nd, hit a three-run home run off Rafael Estrada in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Jose Chavez in the 7th and flied out in the 9th.
This year, Lang has hit at a .314 clip with 64 RBIs, 16 home runs and 53 runs scored.
