Olmedo-Barrera Goes on Rampage Against Makos
Sunday, July 11th, 2021
Even as a kid, David Olmedo-Barrera said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Makos Ballpark today, Olmedo-Barrera showed how well he learned that lesson.
The 27-year-old left fielder had 5 hits in 5 at-bats for the Oakland Alliance, helping his team knock off the Omaha Makos by a score of 10-4.
"They always said, just keep your eye on the ball, don't overswing, make contact and you never know what will happen," he said. "That's all I did today."
David Olmedo-Barrera singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
In the 2021 season Olmedo-Barrera is hitting .257 with 11 home runs.
