UNLV did not wait around Saturday, and Jonny Rodriguez made sure Fresno State never got back in it.<\/p>\n
The Hustlin\u2019 Rebels scored 10 runs in the first two innings, Rodriguez hit three home runs, and UNLV crushed Fresno State 17-1 in seven innings at Pete Beiden Field at Bob Bennett Stadium. The win moved UNLV to 28-22 overall and 9-11 in Mountain West play.<\/p>\n
Rodriguez goes off<\/p>\n
Rodriguez had the kind of day that takes over a box score. He went 3-for-4 with three homers, seven RBI, three runs and a walk, becoming the first Hustlin\u2019 Rebel to hit three homers in a game since Xavier Scruggs did it against San Diego State on April 19, 2008.<\/p>\n
His first homer was a two-run shot in the second that made it 7-0. His second came in the sixth, another two-run blast, and his third was a three-run homer in the seventh that stretched the lead to 17-1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"UNLV did not wait around Saturday, and Jonny Rodriguez made sure Fresno State never got back in it.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":309152,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[112,114,113],"class_list":["post-309151","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-fresno","tag-fresno","tag-fresno-headlines","tag-fresno-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/309151","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=309151"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/309151\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/309152"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=309151"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=309151"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=309151"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
