Great Stroke: Cross Gets 5 Hits
Sunday, May 5th, 2041
It doesn't happen very often, but it did for Damon Cross today -- a 5-hit effort. He went on a rampage at Asheville Park and paced the Hops to a 18-4 win over the Asheville Highlanders.
After his dynamite batting performance, the Yakima third baseman told reporters that he "just tried to get in a good count and have a good at-bat. That's all I can control."
His philosophy paid dividends today. He slammed 5 hits in 5 tries and put his name in the record book. Damon Cross singled in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, walked in the 5th, singled in the 7th, hit a solo-shot off Hyosuke Matsui in the 8th and hit a two-run home run off Hyosuke Matsui in the 9th.
