Williams Socks it to WL 3 Times
Monday, January 14th, 2019
WL Rays right fielder Justin Williams left the WL pitching staff in ruins at Raiders Stadium today, beating the Giants 16-2 with a prodigious three-home run performance.
"The last one was totally unexpected," Williams told reporters at the press conference following his big game. "I just wanted to make good contact, never thinking I would get a home run, and bang, I got number three."
For the game, the WL right fielder had 3 hits in 3 at-bats, drove in 5 and scored 4 runs.
Justin Williams walked in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Randy Gavía in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Jimmy Tirney in the 3rd, walked in the 5th, walked in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off José Márquez in the 8th.
Williams is presently hitting at a .336 pace with 18 home runs, 39 RBIs and has scored 28 times.
