His first two RBIs were a stroke of good fortune (an 80 footer that the 3rd baseman tried to barehand on a 3-2 count with the bases loaded). The last three RBIs were definitely earned with a blast over the green monster in left. It looked like a pretty good pitch from Cobb. Josh went way down and golfed it out of the park.
OK, he can stop now.

I looked for Fungo in the stands, but couldn't find him. I might have heard him yell when Josh golfed that HR out. 
Did you catch this in Auburn's 7-6 win over the #4 ranked Georgia Tech??

Auburn loses to LSU today, but Catcher Josh Bell gave Auburn a 2-0 lead in the fifth inning with a lead-off home run against LSU starter Clay Dirks. It was Bell's fifth homer of the season and fourth in the last five games.
Auburn takes two out of three at LSU!

That my Boy!
I'm sure Fungo can now justify all the bent John Deere blades and those hidden balls in the grass. Josh is a talent and also a nice young man. He deserves good things!

ouch! - guess there's somthing to be said for catchers calling pitches - in that we just may have been able to hold him to a couple of triples - lol
