3-HR Dream Game for Esparsa Wednesday, July 19th , 2023 Fans seated in the bleacher section at Swamp Dogs Stadium were taking cover all day long as Esteban Esparsa zeroed in on them, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power. The big game from the Birmingham first baseman helped the Swamp Dogs take the victory, 7-1, over the Hamburg Battle Kings. "I told myself not to press on the last one," he told reporters in the postgame press conference. "I knew I couldn't force it -- it has to be a nice easy swing." For the game, he collected 3 hits in 3 at-bats, drove in 7 and scored 3 runs. Esteban Esparsa hit a two-run home run off Özay Cebesoy in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Danya Voblov in the 3rd, walked in the 5th and hit a two-run home run off Antinko Zhovnir in the 7th. This year Esparsa has 10 home runs and a .264 batting average. |
