Ortega Slaps 5 Hits
Friday, July 21st, 2034
It wasn't just another day at the ballpark for José Ortega today. Ortega went on a tear and cracked hit after hit off Staten Island pitchers. When the dust settled on the diamond at Ballpark of Califon, he had a 5-for-5 line and a day he will long remember. And the Germantown Uruguayans had a 14-2 victory over the Pizza Rats.

"Yeah, it'll be something nice to tell the grandkids, but it won't get me a hit tomorrow," he joked in the postgame interview.

José Ortega singled in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Dong-min Kim in the 3rd, doubled in the 6th, hit an RBI double in the 6th and singled in the 8th.

In 54 games Ortega is hitting .332 this season with 71 hits, 7 home runs, 31 RBIs, 13 walks, .380 OBP and has scored 34 runs.
