Lithgoe Slams 3 Deep for Nashville Friday, May 17th , 2058 At Hot Chickens Park, Colm Lithgoe hit homer after homer after homer. But they didn't add up to enough to beat the Santa Barbara Golden Cranes as the Nashville Hot Chickens went down to defeat, 11-9. "It was a good game for me, not so good for our team," the Nashville left fielder said. "I got lucky. I made some good swings on some pitches. We just didn't put up one in the win column." On his monumental day, he had 3 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 6 runs, and scored 3 times. "The third one was totally unexpected," Lithgoe told reporters after his extraordinary game. "I just wanted to make good contact, never thinking I would get another home run and bang, I got number three." Colm Lithgoe hit a three-run home run off David Luna in the 1st, flied out in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Joe Johnson in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Joe Adams in the 7th and walked in the 9th. Lithgoe is hitting .304 for the season with 6 home runs, 17 RBIs and 9 runs scored. He has 14 hits in 46 at-bats and played in 13 games. |
