Molina Sensational, 5-9
It was a big day with the bat for <Gabino Molina:player#9172> of the <Sault Ste. Marie Dukes:team#130> as he bashed out hit after hit after hit against <Salton City:team#123>. 

To the press after the ballgame he modestly said, "Guys, it's just one game in a long season. I hit it hard and found some holes today... and Bingo! -- 5 hits in 9 tries! But my hits are not the big story in the game. We lost the game 11-10. That's the story. The Naturals flat out beat us!"

At the end of the game Molina had collected 5 hits in 9 at-bats and a small mention in the record book. He was happy for his big day with the bat, but not too happy with the outcome of the game.

The beat writers were happy, too. They had their big story -- they could write about his big day with the bat.
