Red Sox Ramírez Raps 3 Homers
Sunday, June 17th , 2001
Memphis Red Sox bombardier Manny Ramírez set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club beat the Baltimore Black Sox, 10-7.
"I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Ramírez told writers in the postgame press room. "I was ahead in the count, so I gambled that I'd get a certain pitch, and got all of it."
For the game, the Memphis right fielder had 3 hits in 5 at-bats, drove in 6, and scored 3 runs.
Manny Ramírez hit a two-run home run off Dennis Martínez in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Dennis Martínez in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off R A Dickey in the 4th, struck out in the 6th and struck out in the 9th.
A look at his season totals shows Ramírez with 19 home runs, .299 BA, .361 OBP, 50 RBIs and 34 runs scored.
