Edwards Goes 5-for-5
Plano left fielder John Edwards could do no wrong in today's 16-1 win over the Golden Gophers as he collected 5 hits.

"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Golden Gophers skipper Iemitsu Tanabe said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."

Edwards agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.

"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."

John Edwards singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a three-run home run off Christian Allen in the 4th, hit an RBI triple in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and walked in the 8th.

So far this season Edwards is hitting .419 with 2 home runs, 7 RBIs and 5 runs scored. He has 13 hits in 31 at-bats and a .471 OBP.
