Night Train Saslove Goes Yard 4 Times Saturday, April 26th , 2053 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 Saslove did today in the 13-12 Manistique Night Train victory over the Escanaba Moonlight. Saslove went 4-for-5 with 4 home runs and drove in 9 runs in a once-in-a-lifetime feat that the opposing manager later labeled "impossible." "I don't believe it really happened," Moonlight manager 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 Saslove hit a solo-shot off Emmanuel Lucas in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Emmanuel Lucas in the 2nd, grounded out in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Kinnojo Ageda in the 6th and hit a three-run home run off Dan Numbers in the 7th. In 21 games this season, Saslove has batted at a .321 pace with 27 hits and 6 home runs. View Boxscore View Game Log |
