Guadamuz Socks It to Toros, Cracks 5 Hits
Saturday, August 22nd , 2076
New York second baseman Carlos Guadamuz could do no wrong in today's 10-9 win over the Toros as he collected 5 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Toros skipper Rick Barnes said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
Guadamuz agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.
"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."
Carlos Guadamuz doubled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th and doubled in the 8th.
Looking at his present stats, Guadamuz has compiled a .328 batting average in 104 games with a .389 on-base percentage, while hitting 4 home runs and driving in 52 runs.
