Ah, misunderstood.

Ok, here’s some news stories:

The Mariners pitching staff couldn’t figure out how to pitch to Henry Jones as he belted 3 HR’s and had 6 RBI in a tremendous display of offense. His first blast came in the 2nd inning off of Keith Lebel. Home run number two was a 5th inning shot that gave George Standridge’s neck a twist. Trevor Sikes was the victim of Jones’ third home run, which came in the 7th. Jones’s display of power raised his season total to 22 HR’s on the year.

The Angels’ Henry Jones had a career night with 3 home runs against Seattle. “I really saw the ball well tonight and was able to get good wood on it each time,” Jones declared. “I’ve had some good nights before but this one was special coming against the Mariners.” His 3 home run performance put him at 22 on the year.

Fireworks exploded with regularity over the Angels-Mariners game, but it wasn’t a match that set them off. No, it was the bat of Henry Jones as he belted 3 home runs in a display of sheer power. Jones victimized the Mariners’ pitching staff for 4 hits in 5 at-bats and knocked in 7 runs. After the game, Jones stated simply: “I saw everything they threw at me.”

If you were sitting in the bleachers and brought your glove to the Angels-Mariners game, there was a good chance you’d catch one of Henry Jones 3 home runs. The Angels’ right fielder sent eager gloved fans scurrying to catch one of the memorable blasts. Jones was 3-4 on the night with 5 RBI and is now batting .302 on the season. While the Angels won 6-2, most fans will remember those 3 home runs.

“Unbelievable.” That’s all disgusted Mariner starter Ivan Santana had to say before storming away from reporters. The reason for his surly attitude? A 3 home run performance that Angel right fielder Henry Jones posted as part of a night in which he helped send Santana to an early shower. Jones was in the zone, delivering the most powerful weapon a hitter can unleash on 3 occasions. “I can’t say I feel sorry for him,” Jones quipped with a smile when told of Santana’s reaction. “It feels pretty good to hit the ball so well.”
