It’s the first time OKC went deep six times in one game since July 30, 2023 at Reno during an 11-inning game and the first time it happened in a nine-inning game since Aug. 28, 2022 against El Paso…It was also the second time in four games OKC hit at least five home runs…Dalton Rushing and Ryan Ward became the first set of OKC players to collect a multi-homer game in the same game since Michael Busch and David Dahl during the team’s last six-homer game July 30, 2023 at Reno in 11 innings.
-Fresh off receiving his award as the 2024 Dodgers Branch Ricky Minor League Player of the Year award Friday night, Dalton Rushing went 3-for-6 with two homers and three RBI.

Ward also finished with three RBI Saturday and now has 101 RBI for the season. He is just the fourth player during the Bricktown era to reach the century mark in RBI.
-James Outman tied his season high with four hits, going 4-for-5 with a home run and three RBI. Outman has notched at least one extra-base hit in six straight games. During the streak, Outman is 14-for-26 (.538) with eight extra-base hits, including four homers, and 12 RBI.
