Rice Is King of Swing: Goes Deep 3 Times Thursday, August 11th , 2061 Baton Rouge Brass left fielder Logan Rice sensed he was going to have a good day at the plate, but he still might have underestimated it a little. Prior to the start of today's contest with the Sacramento Redlegs, Rice told teammates he was sure he would hit a home run. He did -- three times. "During batting practice I really had my swing down pat," he recalled. "I felt some thunder in the lumber." The big day from Rice pushed the Brass past the Redlegs, 10-5. To go along with the homers, he collected 6 RBIs and scored 4 runs. "I was seeing good, feeling good and swinging good," Rice told reporters after the game. Logan Rice hit a two-run home run off Mauro RamÃrez in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Sabri Didier in the 4th and hit a solo-shot off Sabri Didier in the 6th. Rice is hitting .417 this year with 4 home runs and 12 RBIs. He also has an OBP of .463, 5 walks and scored 11 times. |
