Don Keough Drills 3 HR in One Game
Friday, August 29th , 1975
Pittsburgh Industrials bombardier Don Keough set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club beat the San Diego Captains, 8-2.
"I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Keough told writers in the postgame press room. "I was ahead in the count, so I gambled that I'd get a certain pitch, and got all of it."
For the game, the Pittsburgh left fielder had 4 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 5, and scored 3 runs.
Don Keough doubled in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Ray Heath in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Ray Heath in the 5th and hit a two-run home run off Ray Heath in the 7th.
For the season, Keough is currently batting .305 with 36 home runs and 91 RBIs. In 105 games he has reached base at a .414 rate and scored 90 runs to date.
