Burnett Powers 3 HR Against Philadelphia (FCL)
Thursday, June 11th , 2026
Jaden Burnett went on an explosive hitting spree against the Philadelphia (FCL) Phillies at Citizens Bank Park, launching a trio of blasts to help the New York A (FCL) Yankees win, 19-5.
The right fielder finished 3-for-6 with 4 runs scored and 9 runs batted in.
"It was just one of those days," Burnett said in a postgame interview. "I don't know how to explain it. I'm just putting a good swing on the ball."
Philadelphia (FCL) skipper Tim Rich said Burnett was "locked-in."
"We made some pretty good pitches," he said. "Those first two homers were exactly where the pitcher wanted to put them. He's just hot right now -- you've just got to tip your hat to him."
Jaden Burnett hit a three-run home run off Ray Heins in the 1st, grounded out in the 2nd, flied out in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, hit a three-run home run off Jayden Grant in the 7th and hit a three-run home run off Justin Rodgers in the 9th.
