Bucky's Big Memorial Day

Bucky Jacobsen found his form this weekend, hitting two homeruns Monday night with a franchise record seven runs batted in. Both shots are reminiscent of homers we've seen in the past. His three-run shot highlighted the Long Island Ducks third inning, and Bucky added a grand slam in the seventh. The first homerun cleared the 24 foot high second fence in left which stands 350 feet from home plate. The grand slam was to straight center landing more than 400 feet away. Said Ducks' manager Don McCormack, "His ball will go out anywhere when he hits it. Left. Center. Right. The moon. Yellowstone." The Long Island Ducks' website, liducks.com, has audio clips of Bucky's thoughts of his night as well as manager Don McCoramack.

The two homer game follows Bucky's Sunday performance where he hit a double and his first triple of the season.
