Just a couple of days after appearing in the All Stars Future Game at Yankee Stadium, Perth native Luke Hughes made waves in the Double-A All Star Game today. He smashed a 400-foot homerun in the 6th inning to score 3 runs and give the North All-Stars the lead over the South. Hughes was the designated hitter for the North, and went 1-for-4, but he made sure the hit counted.
He jumped on a 3-1 fastball and sent it sailing over the left field fence to score three. Hughes has had a big year so far, and could reasonably expect a promotion to AAA, or even to the Bigs later this year.
