Somedays you can't win for losing. Just ask Keston Hiura. He was the King of Swing in the game against the Reds, but his Braves were beaten 13-2 anyway.
The Atlanta second baseman stepped into the batter's box 5 times against the Cincinnati and delivered 5 hits.
It was a sensational game for him. He excitedly told the press, "Unbelieveable feeling. Unbelieveable. It felt good. It felt great on the one hand, but a downer at the same time. What a day! 5 for 5! It does wonders for your batting average. But it's a shame we couldn't win it, too."
K. Hiura hit a solo-shot off B. Snell in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI triple in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
This season Hiura has hit at a .291 clip with 75 RBIs, 15 home runs and 125 runs scored. He has played in 149 games. | | Wednesday, September 14th, 2033: 5-Hits Blitz by Los Angeles's Hernandez! Teoscar Hernandez of the Dodgers was unstoppable in today's 12-1 victory over the Atlanta Braves at Dodger Stadium. He battered them for 5 hits in 6 at-bats.
"Boy, I was on the mark today," said the Los Angeles center fielder after the game. "All I had to do was swing, and I connected. It's a great feeling to do this. And besides, 5-6 won't hurt your batting average like 0-5 will."
