Álvarez Batters Lakewood Big Time
Tuesday, August 12th , 2070
Jesús Álvarez of the Shorebirds was unstoppable in today's 8-4 victory over the Lakewood Blue Claws at First Energy Park. He battered them for 5 hits in 5 at-bats.
"Boy, I was on the mark today," said the Delmarva left fielder after the game. "I could see the ball real well. It's a great feeling to do this. And besides, 5-for-5 won't hurt your batting average like 0-for-5 will."
Jesús Álvarez hit an RBI single in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit a three-run double in the 6th, singled in the 8th and hit a two-run home run off António Zavala in the 9th.
Álvarez on the season is hitting .269 with 19 home runs. His stats include 67 RBIs and 62 runs scored.
