Schultz Strokes 5 Hits Tuesday, August 5th, 2031 A jubilant Tommy Schultz joined the postgame press conference at Target Field today to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Minnesota Twins pitching staff he had just vanquished. "It may not have looked like it," said the St. Louis Cardinals third baseman, "but I saw some awful good pitches today. If luck hadn't been on my side it might have turned out a lot different." That would not have been the conclusion of anyone who saw his dominant 5-for-5 hitting performance, which led the Cardinals to a 12-4 win. "He made it look easy," said , manager of the Twins. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously." Tommy Schultz hit a two-run home run off Mike Flynn in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, doubled in the 6th and singled in the 8th. This year Schultz is hitting .282, produced 57 RBIs and 16 home runs, scored 60 times and gotten on base at a .351 rate. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |
