Thorns Pitching Ravaged by Arcimboldo
Tuesday, June 15th , 2083
A jubilant Mauro Arcimboldo joined the postgame press conference at Norfolk Grounds 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 Anaheim Rage center fielder, "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 6-2 Rage win.
"He made it look easy," said , manager of the Thorns. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously."
Mauro Arcimboldo doubled in the 1st, hit a two-run double in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.
So far this year, Arcimboldo is batting .236 with 2 home runs, 16 RBIs and 21 runs scored.
