Larate Rips Ottawa for 5 Hits Friday, May 26th, 2034 Pedro Larate put on a hitting clinic today as the Ft. Polk South Thunder Hawks dumped the Ottawa Nationals 14-1 at Thunder Hawks Ballpark. The Ft. Polk South center fielder made Ottawa defenders earn their pay, lashing Ottawa 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," Larate said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch." Pedro Larate doubled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th. Larate is hitting .307 this year with no home runs and 13 RBIs. He also has an OBP of .346, 5 walks and scored 7 times. View Boxscore View Game Log |
