Big Day with Bat: Stanton 5-for-6
Saturday, September 1st , 2068
Getting 5 hits in a game doesn't happen every day, so it was a special occasion for Lynx's Jim Stanton at Hoboken Ballpark today. Stanton put up a 5-for-6 line against the Hoboken Falcons, swinging the bat with authority all day despite his club's eventual 11-10 loss.
"I'm just out there to try and help the team win," Stanton said after the game. "I had some real good at-bats today. I made good, solid contact and luckily no one caught 'em. I had a great day, but it's disappointing to lose."
Disappointed or not, he still gets his name in the record books. Jim Stanton singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, doubled in the 6th, hit a two-run single in the 7th and grounded out in the 9th.
This year Stanton is batting .304 with 24 home runs. He has scored 87 runs and driven in 74.
