Sheffield Belts 3 HRs
Wednesday, August 13th , 2025
Steve Sheffield was in a home run mode at Music Grove. The Anaheim second baseman massacred Green Knights pitching, cracking out three home runs and going 3-for-3 with 7 RBIs and scoring 3 runs. But this sensational performance didn't really matter. Spring Park won the ballgame, 18-13, despite the three homers.
"I wish a big 'W' had come with this," he said. "It's great to hit three homers, but the bottom line is whether you win or lose."
Nonetheless, Sheffield will now have a place in the league record book.
"I guess when you're hot, you're hot," he said. "I'm not going up there trying to hit home runs. I put the good part of the bat on it and luckily three of them went out today."
Steve Sheffield walked in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 4th, was hit by a pitch in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 7th and hit a three-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 8th.
So far this season, Sheffield has 8 home runs and a .293 batting average.
