Kubanek Slams 3 Deep for Zagreb
Friday, June 12th , 1953
Jeronym Kubanek added his name in the record books after an explosive home run spree against the Pristina Panthers. But despite joining the select list of sluggers to hit three home runs in a game, it didn't guarantee a victory. The Zagreb Commodores fell to the Panthers, 8-7.

In his big day at Commodores Park, the Zagreb first baseman went 3-for-5 with 5 RBIs and scored 3 times.

"It was just one of those days," he told BNN sportswriters in the postgame interview. "I don't know how to explain it. I'm just putting a good swing on the ball. "You would think three homers would win most games. It was good to hit 'em, but a win would have really made my day."

Jeronym Kubanek hit a two-run home run off Djordje Cavoski in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Djordje Cavoski in the 4th, grounded out in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Djordje Cavoski in the 7th and grounded out in the 9th.

On the season, Kubanek is batting .246 with 8 home runs and 22 RBIs. He has played in 32 games.
