Avalos Smacks 5 Hits for Kings
A jubilant Marty Avalos joined the postgame press conference at Ballpark of Louisa to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Norfolk Thorns pitching staff he had just vanquished.

"It may not have looked like it," said the Baton Rouge Kings third baseman, "but I saw some awful good pitches today. If luck hadn't been on my side it might have turned out a lot different."

That would not have been the conclusion of anyone who saw his dominant 5-for-5 hitting performance, which led to the 10-8 Kings win.

"He made it look easy," said , manager of the Thorns. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously."

Marty Avalos hit a solo-shot off Josh Trejo in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, singled in the 5th, doubled in the 7th and hit a three-run home run off Yo Ya in the 8th.

Avalos is currently batting .262 with 7 home runs and 24 RBIs.
