Muñóz Sizzles -- Smokes Torment for 5 Hits Monday, July 26th, 2066 5 hits in a game has always been a magic number in baseball. Only a handful of players will do that. Get 5 hits in a game, and you get your moment of glory, your fifteen minutes of fame -- you get your name in the record book. In the Flight 18-1 win over Chula Vista, Manny Muñóz was red-hot today, scorching them for hit after hit at Ballpark of Chula Vista. "To hit the ball consistently well, you have to relax. I was relaxed for the first four hits, but I must admit, I got a little tight when I realized I had a chance for a 5-hit game. On the last at-bat, I was ready to swing at anything close." On his big day Muñóz delivered 5 hits in 5 at-bats. Manny Muñóz hit an RBI single in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, hit an RBI double in the 5th, singled in the 7th, hit an RBI single in the 8th and flied out in the 9th. So far this year Muñóz is batting .299 with no home runs, 11 RBIs and 8 runs scored. |
