5-Hit Blitz by Calgary's Venzor
Wednesday, June 30th , 2083
Calgary third baseman Manny Venzor could do no wrong in his team's 14-8 win over the Sun Devils, as he collected 5 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Sun Devils skipper said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
Venzor 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."
Manny Venzor hit a solo-shot off Eddie Jaramillo in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Eddie Jaramillo in the 4th, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and hit a three-run home run off Salvador Fuentes in the 8th.
This year, Venzor is batting .272 with 70 hits, 4 home runs, 25 RBIs, 8 walks, .318 OBP and has scored 22 runs.
