Laga Parks 3 HR in the Seats Friday, July 23rd, 1982 In a powerful performance that left the fans at Joker Marchant Stadium buzzing, Lakeland Pilots first baseman Mike Laga blasted a trio of home runs en route to a 11-0 win over the Cocoa Flyers. "Everything was clicking," Laga told the press. "My timing was good and I got pitches I could handle and I didn't miss them." Laga shined brilliantly in the win, with 4 hits in 4 at-bats, 5 RBIs and 4 runs scored. "It's not just one guy, it's everybody," Pilots manager said. "Mike played great but it takes more than one guy to win a game." Mike Laga hit a solo-shot off Marty Mason in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Kenneth Rabun in the 6th and hit a three-run home run off Curtis Reade in the 7th. So far this season, Laga has recorded a .330 batting average with 104 hits, 36 home runs, 112 RBIs, 70 runs scored and a .404 OBP. |
