Segura Connects for 3 Homers for Dragons Sunday, July 26th, 2065 Players don't hit three home runs in a game very often and when they do, it is something to celebrate. After today, Jorge Segura can celebrate. The Quebec Dragons second baseman powered three into the stands at Thunder Bay Grounds today against the Thunder Bay Avengers. "It's rare that you actually try to hit a home run," Segura told reporters after the game. "Most of the time you fail, if you really try to hit one. But today, I was really trying on that last one." In all, he was 3-for-5 as the Dragons toppled Thunder Bay by a score of 9-5, knocking in 6 runs and scoring 3 times. "He is blessed with a natural home run swing," Quebec manager Michael Vallery said. "He gets the ball up in the air." Jorge Segura hit a solo-shot off Rene Cantimori in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Rene Cantimori in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th, hit a three-run home run off Wai-ho Hsing in the 7th and grounded out in the 9th. So far this season Segura has gotten 85 hits in 266 at-bats for a .320 batting average with 21 home runs. His stats include 55 RBIs and 46 runs scored. He has played in 74 games. |
