 | Tuesday, May 26th, 2009: Great Stroke! Torres Gets 5 Hits!
What a day for Javier Torres of the Gary Goats! A 5-hit hitting spree! That doesn't happen everyday. He ripped Guantanamo Bay pitching apart at The Thunderdome. He wrote his name in the record books, finishing up his special day 5-6. But the Interrogators spoiled his party by winning the game 11-9.
The Gary first baseman confessed, "I would have much preferred getting a couple of hits and winning the game to this. It's hard to enjoy anything when you lose."
His skipper said, "It's a shame that we couldn't have won the game. A guy gets a once-in-a-lifetime game and can't really enjoy it."
But he was upbeat enough to talk about his basic theory of hitting. "I'm usually a first ball hitter," Torres told SION reporters in the postgame press conference. "I think pitchers think batters are going to let the first one go by. I never do. I've always found that it's better to pull the trigger early in the count. Pitchers get real nasty when they get ahead of you, so I try to avoid that."
J. Torres singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, flied out in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off W. Drake in the 6th, singled in the 8th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.
Torres on the season is hitting .332 with 11 home runs. His stats include 39 RBIs and 37 runs scored.
