**********And now look at this:Brock Deatherage(Western Alamance/N.C. State) with a GRAND SLAM HR in his second pro game…..**********
First Game as a professional baseball player for Brock Deatherage, from Western Alamance High School and N.C. State University, and Brock sent a shock into the Detroit Tigers system, as Brock nearly broke the clock and sent the rock rolling, with 3 Solo Home Runs in his 5 at bats and Brock Deatherage was deadly tonight for the GCL West Tigers, with those 3 Home Runs….WOW!!!!! Deatherage 3 for 5 with 3 HR’s/3 RBI and 4 runs scored….
Final:GCL West Tigers 9, GCL Yankees East 3
from Twitter on this night:
#Tigers prospect Brock Deatherage begins professional career with the Gulf Coast League’s first three-homer game since 2011
+++++Brock’s dad, David Deatherage, grew up just up the road from where I lived as a kid, David Deatherage up there on Inman Road and AD down there on Old Oak Ridge Road and I never thought I would see anything like this, come out of the old neighborhood…..+++++
Brock came back in day 2 and hit a grand slam. Kid is on FIRE!! Good job Brock. I don’t see him in the GCL long if he keeps this up
I was looking and seen Cesar Trejo is 3-8 with 2 doubles, 2 runs, an RBI and a Stolen base hitting .375. Good start there too.
Man, that is CRAZY….He is hitting the ball harder and longer now, than he did at N.C. State….
