Lane Slams 3 Homers for Judges
Sunday, July 30th , 2000
Today was a special one for Jason Lane of the Pine Bluff Judges as he slammed three home runs in the 13-2 win over the Bingo Long's Traveling All Stars.
"Lately, I've been uppercutting the ball too much," he said to sportswriters after the game. "I would hit it hard, but they just went sky high and stayed in the ballpark. No big long outs for me in this game. I leveled out my swing and connected on the sweet spot. I knew they were gone the minute I hit 'em."
The Pine Bluff right fielder collected 3 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 5, and scored 3 runs in the contest at Taylor Memorial Field.
Jason Lane hit a solo-shot off Alex Kellner in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Alex Kellner in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Alex Kellner in the 6th, walked in the 7th and struck out in the 8th.
This season Lane is hitting .273 with 41 home runs.
