Smashing Success: Rupel Wallops 3 HR Sunday, June 21st , 2026 Las Vegas Aviators bombardier Warren Rupel set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club beat the Tacoma Rainiers, 13-2. "I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Rupel 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 Las Vegas first baseman had 3 hits in 5 at-bats, drove in 3, and scored 3 runs. Warren Rupel grounded out in the 1st, struck out in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Joaquin Corpus in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Joaquin Corpus in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Joaquin Corpus in the 8th. So far this year, Rupel is hitting .278 with 10 home runs. |
