Great Day for Flores -- 5 Hits
Sunday, August 6th, 2023
It was a good day for the Trout Slayers at Tuscaloosa Municipal Stadium as they clipped the Trenton Stars 16-11. It was tremendous day for José Flores, who went on quite a hitting spree with a 5 for 5 barrage. The Tuscaloosa shortstop told reporters after his big 5-hit performance, "I don't have any buzz words. I'm not 'dialed in' or 'in a zone,' as they say. As far as the hitting goes, I try to keep it simple. I try not to look into it too much. Basically the pitcher throws the ball, I try to pick up the spin, then try to hit it. Today I picked up the spin very well." José Flores singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, walked in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
Flores is batting at a .333 pace this season, picking up 142 hits in 427 at-bats with 6 home runs, 71 RBIs and 96 runs scored.
