3 Boomers for Gomez Saturday, May 9th , 2026 Fans seated in the bleacher section at PNC Park were taking cover all day long as Tony Gomez zeroed in on them, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power. The big game from the Pittsburgh right fielder helped the Pirates take the victory, 10-0, over the River Hills Rockets. "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 4 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 6 and scored 3 runs. Tony Gomez hit a two-run home run off Danny Tindale in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Danny Tindale in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Alex Mooney in the 7th and walked in the 8th.
