Tabata Has Hot Hand, Bangs 5 hits
Benoni Red Sox second baseman Masayoshi Tabata had a day to remember at Red Foxes Stadium, ripping apart the Vereeniging Red Foxes and sparking the 6-2 Red Sox win.

Tabata wrote his name in the record books with a 5-hit barrage, finishing his special day 5-for-5.

"I'm usually a first ball hitter," Tabata told BNN reporters in the postgame press conference. "I think pitchers think batters are going to let the first one go by. I never do. I've always found that it's better to pull the trigger early in the count. Pitchers get real nasty when they get ahead of you, so I try to avoid it."

Masayoshi Tabata singled in the 1st, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and singled in the 9th.

This season, Tabata is hitting at a .327 pace with no home runs, 2 RBIs and has scored 3 times.
