Bishop Verot HS's Hall Goes Ballistic with 5 Hits Monday, April 20th, 2026 5 hits in a game has always been a magic number in baseball. Only a handful of players will do that. Get 5 hits in a game, and you get your moment of glory, your fifteen minutes of fame -- you get your name in the record book. In the Bishop Verot HS 12-11 win over Oliver Ames HS, Jim Hall was red-hot today, scorching them for hit after hit at Mudcats Ballpark. "To hit the ball consistently well, you have to relax. I was relaxed for the first four hits, but I must admit, I got a little tight when I realized I had a chance for a 5-hit game. On the last at-bat, I was ready to swing at anything close." On his big day Hall delivered 5 hits in 5 at-bats. Jim Hall doubled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, walked in the 8th and singled in the 9th. This year Hall is hitting .409 with 5 home runs and 18 RBIs in 19 games played. He also boasts an OBP of .466 with 8 walks and 29 runs scored. |
