Magicians Narron Goes Yard 4 Times
Hitting a single home run is a tough task. Hitting two in a game is impressive. Hitting three is remarkable. Anything beyond that is borderline unbelievable -- yet that's what Jerry Narron did today in the 20-5 Roanoke Magicians victory over the Havana Sugar Kings.

Narron went 4-for-5 with 4 home runs and drove in 8 runs in a once-in-a-lifetime feat that the opposing manager later labeled "impossible."

"I don't believe it really happened," Sugar Kings manager Raul Gonzalez joked to BNN reporters afterward. "I don't ever enjoy losing a game, but this kid was special today. I have never seen a guy hit 4 in a game before. I didn't enjoy it, but it was special."

Jerry Narron hit a solo-shot off Kris Benson in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Kris Benson in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, hit a GRAND SLAM off Ramon Lopez in the 7th, walked in the 8th and hit a two-run home run off Stan Benjamin in the 9th.

This season Narron is swinging the bat at a .333 rate with 5 hits in 15 at-bats. To date he has hit 5 home runs, scored 6 runs and driven in 9.
