Drury Belts Bunch of Base Hits
Tuesday, August 12th, 2036
Even as a kid, Barrett Drury said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Mercer Island Grounds today, Drury showed how well he learned that lesson.
The 28-year-old second baseman had 5 hits in 5 at-bats for the Mercer Island Screaming Eagles, helping his team knock off the Casper Ghosts by a score of 15-6.
"They always said, just keep your eye on the ball, don't overswing, make contact and you never know what will happen," he said. "That's all I did today."
Barrett Drury singled in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 6th, doubled in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Gary Johnson in the 8th.
This season Drury is hitting .269 with 57 hits, 10 home runs, 24 RBIs, scored 35 runs and played in 65 games.
