Wells 5-for-5 for Portland
Vernon Wells exploded for a barrage of base hits at Gill Stadium.

The Portland center fielder had a field day in his team's 12-8 triumph over the Manchester Fisher Cats, finishing 5-for-5.

"My hitting philosophy is simple," he said. "I focus on just seeing the ball and I try to get a good pitch."

Wells must have focused at least 5 times and apparently got some good pitches, too, leading to one of his best days ever with the bat. Vernon Wells walked in the 1st, hit a two-run single in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Todd Abbott in the 4th, doubled in the 6th, singled in the 8th and singled in the 9th.

This season, Wells is hitting .365 with 3 home runs.
