DeMarini takes the roof off at Minute Maid Park.
July 19, 2013 – Houston Texas – Chris Larsen and Team DeMarini are back in a huge way on the Stadium Power Tour. Larsen, Donovan Pokraka and Adam Rockoff tied with 12 points each, many spectacular blasts, that completely left Minute Maid Park. Larsen led off and never looked back, sending several massive show bombs into the streets. “The ball was flying tonight, my Demo bat was on fire, I had goose bumps when the first softball left the park.
Reebok’s Chris Greinert also sent several Evil softballs out of the park. At 6 foot 6 and close to 300 pounds, he made a big impression on the Astro’s fans, when he sent Evil softballs into downtown Houston. The Long Haul Bombers hit after the Astro’s and Mariners game, before a fireworks show as the Astro’s rolled back the roof at Minute Maid Park for the show.
