MiLB Player Hits 3 HR (2 Grand Slams), Notches 12 RBI in His Team Debut

Appearing in his first game at High-A, Lancaster JetHawks left fielder Derek Fisher proved the Houston Astros made the right move in promoting him.

The 21-year-old led his team to a 16-3 victory over the High Desert Mavericks with a game for the ages. He went 4-for-6 with three home runs—including two grand slams—and 12 RBI. Amazingly, he hit all three home runs before the third inning was over.

Fisher got his big night started with a solo shot in the top of the first inning. From there, things only got better. He came to the plate with the bases loaded in the second inning, the third inning and the seventh inning. Each time, he cleared the bases.

Fisher clubbed his first grand slam in the second:

The following inning, he did it again:

In the seventh, Fisher knocked in three more as he emptied the bases with a double—he was tagged out oversliding third base:

The 12 RBI broke a 61-year-old California League record.

According to MLB.com, Fisher is rated as Houston's 11th-best prospect.
