5 Hits for Sumos Jensen Thursday, July 21st , 2078 Hicksville first baseman Kurt Jensen had a fantastic day at the plate at Ballpark of Fremont, knocking out 5 hits and pacing his club to a win, 17-5. "It was like I was hitting Little League pitching," Jensen said after his 5-for-5 performance against the Roadsters. "No offense meant to Fremont, but it was like I was back in little league again -- I could see the ball that well. But this wasn't a kid park, it was Ballpark of Fremont." After the game, his manager elaborated on the first baseman's improvements, saying Jensen spent the offseason trying to shorten his swing and stay inside the ball. "That's what I'm trying to do," Jensen said. "Be quick to the ball and let it travel a little farther so I get a better look at it." Kurt Jensen hit a solo-shot off Andy Lawlor in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, hit a three-run home run off Ivan Medina in the 4th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 8th. Jensen is currently batting .261 with 10 home runs and 38 RBIs. View Boxscore |
