Martínez Rips Highwood for 5 Hits Friday, May 9th, 2031 Diego Martínez put on a hitting clinic today as the Nebraska Plainsmen dumped the Highwood Hawks 8-1 at Hawks Field. The Nebraska second baseman made Highwood defenders earn their pay, lashing Highwood pitching for 5 hits in 5 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it." "Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Martínez said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch." Diego Martínez hit an RBI single in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th, singled in the 7th and hit an RBI double in the 9th. Martínez is hitting .379 this year with no home runs and 5 RBIs. He also has an OBP of .387, 1 walk and scored 3 times. View Boxscore View Game Log |
