Super Swinger -- Hennessey Slams 5 Hits Friday, August 28th, 2020 "It was like I was hitting little league pitching," said Adam Hennessey after his 5-hit performance against the Fighting Dachsunds. "No offense meant to Ellenburg, but it was like I was back in little league again. I could see the ball that well. But this wasn't a kid league park, it was Dog Park in Ellenburg." The Athletic Club KC center fielder had a fantastic day at the plate, knocking out 5 hits in 5 at-bats and pacing his club to a 16-5 victory. His manager elaborated after the game to the press, saying, "Adam worked the entire offseason on trying to shorten his swing and stay inside the ball and the hard work is paying off in base hits." "That's what I'm trying to do," Hennessey said. "Be quick to the ball and let it travel a little farther so I get a better look at it." Adam Hennessey singled in the 2nd, hit a two-run triple in the 3rd, doubled in the 4th, walked in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and singled in the 9t h. This season Hennessey is batting .293 with 2 home runs. His totals include 26 RBIs and 42 runs scored. |
