Nichols on Fire: 5-for-6 for London
It doesn't happen very often, but it did for Danny Nichols today -- a 5-hit effort. He went on a rampage at Rail Hawks Ballpark and paced the Mets to a 14-1 win over the Flatland Sturgeons.

After his dynamite batting performance, the London shortstop told reporters that he "just tried to get in a good count and have a good at-bat. That's all I can control."

His philosophy paid dividends today. He slammed 5 hits in 6 tries and put his name in the record book. Danny Nichols hit a two-run double in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th.

So far this season Nichols is batting .415 with no home runs.
