Blaine Crim had an outstanding series against the Amarillo Sod Poodles. In the six-game series he tied a franchise record.

The RoughRiders won four games of the six game series and Crim’s bat was a big contributing factor.

Blaine Crim hit a home run in five-straight games cementing his name in the RoughRiders record books.

They all came in the series against the Amarillo Sod Poodles where the ball is known to fly out of the park in Hodgetown. If you can hit the ball hard, you can do damage. Blaine Crim’s specialty is hitting the ball hard and that is exactly what he did.

Blaine’s 5th game with a home run was on Sunday, the series finale against the Amarillo Sod Poodles. It was a grand slam that gave the RoughRiders the lead and helped maintain 1st place in the 2nd half of the season.

For the series Blaine hit .500/.533/1.214/1.748 with 6 home runs and 15 RBI.

For the season Crim is hitting .291/.359/.492/.851 with 22 home runs and 80 RBI.

Trey Hair accomplished the same feat earlier this season prior to being released by the Texas Rangers.

For now, Blaine Crim leads the Texas Rangers farm system with 22 home runs.
