5-for-5 Day for Auken
Players get multi-hit games all the time, but 5-hit games are something else entirely. Eskil Auken walloped 5 hits in 5 at-bats for the New Britain Rock Cats in a career day at Dickey-Stephens Park, but it was the Arkansas Travelers who won the ballgame, 6-5.

"My swing was really, really there," Auken said afterward. "I made some good, solid contact and when that happens, good things happen. And hey, 5-for-5 and losing is better than 0-for-5 and losing, right?"

Eskil Auken singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.

For the season, Auken is hitting at a .351 clip with 2 home runs, 7 RBIs and has scored 11 runs. He has 26 hits, 6 walks and a .407 on-base percentage.
