3 Bombs for Bob Robertson
Pittsburgh Pirates bombardier Bob Robertson set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 5-1.
"I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Robertson 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 first baseman had 3 hits in 5 at-bats, drove in 4, and scored 3 runs.
Bob Robertson struck out in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Bill Singer in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Bill Singer in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Bill Singer in the 7th and flied out in the 9th.
This year, Robertson is batting .267 with 16 home runs and 38 RBIs. In 64 games he has scored 47 times.
