Huggins Whacks 3 Out of the Park for Wilmington Monday, June 15th , 2026 Chris Huggins went on an explosive hitting spree against the Myrtle Beach Pelicans at TicketReturn.com Field at Pelicans Ballpark, launching a trio of blasts to help the Wilmington Blue Rocks win, 9-4. The center fielder finished 3-for-5 with 3 runs scored and 5 RBI. "It was just one of those days," Huggins said in a postgame interview. "I don't know how to explain it. I'm just putting a good swing on the ball." Myrtle Beach skipper Jose Lobaton said Huggins was "locked-in." "We made some pretty good pitches," he said. "Those first two homers were exactly where the pitcher wanted to put them. He's just hot right now -- you've just got to tip your hat to him." Chris Huggins hit a solo-shot off Dax Foster in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Dax Foster in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Willie Johnson in the 6th and flied out in the 8th.
