Gibbard Slaps 5 Hits Sunday, July 29th , 2046 Patrick Gibbard put on a hitting clinic today as the Alaskan Humpbacks dumped the Jersey City Tritons 9-8 at Jersey City Grounds. The Alaskan third baseman made Jersey City defenders earn their pay, lashing Jersey City 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," Gibbard said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch." Patrick Gibbard singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, singled in the 8th and hit a two-run home run off Edwin Perry in the 9th. Presently Gibbard is batting .301 with 40 hits and 6 home runs. He has knocked in 15 runs and scored 26 times. View Boxscore View Game Log |
