Baars Rips Athletic Club KC for 5 Hits
Monday, July 9th, 2035
Govaart Baars put on a hitting clinic today as the Syracuse Storm dumped the Athletic Club KC U-24 13-4 at Storm Park.
The Syracuse second baseman made Athletic Club KC defenders earn their pay, lashing Athletic Club KC 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," Baars said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."
Govaart Baars hit a three-run home run off Jack Spak in the 1st, doubled in the 4th, doubled in the 6th, doubled in the 7th and hit a two-run double in the 8th.
Baars is hitting .319 so far this season with 45 RBIs and 22 runs scored. He has 51 hits including 8 home runs, 8 walks and .365 OBP.
