Tanner on Fire, 5-for-5 Against Pittsburgh
It wasn't just another day at the ballpark for Chuck Tanner. Tanner went on a tear and cracked hit after hit off Pittsburgh pitchers. When the dust settled on the diamond at Vulcans Field, he had a 5-for-5 line and a day he will long remember. And the Toronto Iron Spikes had a win, 15-12, over the Vulcans.

"Yeah, it'll be something nice to tell the grandkids, but it won't get me a hit tomorrow," he joked in the postgame interview.

Chuck Tanner singled in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Bill Ricks in the 4th, doubled in the 6th, hit a solo-shot off Joe Fillmore in the 7th and hit an RBI double in the 9th.

This season, Tanner is swinging the bat at a .348 rate with 24 hits in 69 at-bats. To date he has hit 3 home runs, scored 10 runs and driven in 11.
