Pérez Rips Santa Barbara for 5 Hits Saturday, August 24th, 2030 José Pérez put on a hitting clinic today as the Augusta Timber Hawks dumped the Santa Barbara Golden Cranes 12-6 at Crane Field. The Augusta center fielder made Santa Barbara defenders earn their pay, lashing Santa Barbara pitching for 5 hits in 6 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," Pérez said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch." José Pérez singled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and singled in the 9th. Pérez is hitting .281 so far this season with 30 RBIs and 66 runs scored. He has 89 hits including 4 home runs, 46 walks and .374 OBP. View Boxscore View Game Log |
