Álvarez Cracks 5 Hits Thursday, June 17th, 2032 Vancouver second baseman Paul Álvarez could do no wrong in today's 26-3 win over the Mavericks as he collected 5 hits. "Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Mavericks skipper Scott Jefferies said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts." Álvarez 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." Paul Álvarez singled in the 2nd, walked in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, singled in the 5th, singled in the 5th and doubled in the 8th. For the year Álvarez is batting .355 with 1 home run, 4 RBIs and 6 runs scored. View Boxscore View Game Log |
