de Rooij Hits 2 home runs in Rockets Win
Markus de Rooij was a major factor in the 4-0 River Hills win over New York. The Rockets right fielder went 3 for 4 with 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Saul Jaso was the winning pitcher. Over 5.1 innings, he allowed no runs on 5 hits, with no walks and 4 strikeouts. The victory puts River Hills at 42-97.

de Rooij had a game-changing home run in the top of the sixth. On a first pitch sinker from Esteban Garcia, he banged a solo home run to right, giving the Rockets a 1-0 lead. It was the 12th home run of the year for de Rooij.

"I'm just looking to see the ball, hit the ball," said de Rooij.
