Jones Has Hot Hand, Bangs 5 hits
Tuesday, December 20th , 2039
Sam Jones put on a hitting clinic at Lookouts Grounds, spraying hits all over the ballpark and lashing Garden Grove pitchers for 5 hits in 6 at-bats. However, the offensive onslaught wasn't enough for the Maquoketa War Dogs, who still fell, 8-7.
"Sometimes I try to pull the ball too much, so today I just went with the pitch," Jones told reporters after the game. "It's great to get 5 hits, but it would have been nicer to win the ballgame. too."
Sam Jones hit a solo-shot off Kevin Huizar in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, struck out in the 6th, hit a solo-shot off Willie Serrano in the 8th, singled in the 11th and hit an RBI single in the 13th.
Hitting .217 to date, Jones has 4 home runs and 5 RBIs. He has played in 14 games.
