Three home runs and 10 hits launched the Richmond Flying Squirrels to a 7-5 victory over the Bowie Baysox Saturday night at Prince George’s Stadium.
Six of the seven runs the Flying Squirrels (32-27) scored came off home runs. It was the fourth game of the series that Richmond has smacked multiple home runs against Bowie (33-24).
With the score tied, 4-4, in the top of the eighth inning, David Villar propelled a three-run home run to left and put the Flying Squirrels in front, 7-4. It was Villar’s 11th home run of the season and his first since June 27.
