English Bashes 5 Base Hits Wednesday, April 17th , 2024 A jubilant Tristin English joined the postgame press conference at Roger Dean Stadium today to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Fort Wayne Tin Caps pitching staff he had just vanquished. "It may not have looked like it," said the Jupiter Hammerheads first 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 Hammerheads to a 12-6 win. "He made it look easy," said Billy Gardner Jr., manager of the Tin Caps. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously." Tristin English singled in the 2nd, doubled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit a two-run double in the 6th and singled in the 8th. This season English is batting .625 with 5 hits and no home runs. He has scored 4 times and has 3 RBI. View Boxscore View Game Log |
