Kingsley Socks It to Atoms, Cracks 5 Hits
Sunday, July 5th , 2048
Shaun Kingsley put on a hitting clinic today as the Gwinnett Guinea Pigs dumped the Bethesda Atoms 16-5 at Atoms Field.
The Gwinnett shortstop made Bethesda defenders earn their pay, lashing Bethesda 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," Kingsley said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."
Shaun Kingsley singled in the 2nd, hit a two-run double in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Rafael Galván in the 4th, singled in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off Frank Cunningham in the 9th.
This year Kingsley is hitting .295 with 6 home runs and 27 RBIs to his credit. He has gotten on base at a .380 clip and scored 33 runs.
