Hit Parade: Lo Duca Pops 5 Hits
There aren't many who could be pro ballplayers and there are even fewer who could put up 5 hits in a day.

Paul Lo Duca is one of those rare few, as he went 5-for-5 against the Detroit Tigers at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The monster effort from the 27-year-old catcher helped the Baltimore Orioles get the win, 16-8.

"We made some bad pitches and he took advantage of it," said Tigers manager Joe Smith. "That's the game, though. Don't make mistakes and you'll win ballgames. Make mistakes and, well, you saw what happened today."

Paul Lo Duca singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Matt Burch in the 4th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
