Pimentel Slaps 5 Hits Tuesday, September 8th , 2071 Hudson Valley third baseman Ángel Pimentel could do no wrong in his team's 10-8 win over the Ironbirds, as he collected 5 hits. "Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Ironbirds skipper Edgardo Torres said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts." Pimentel agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game. "Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready." Ángel Pimentel singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, walked in the 6th, grounded out in the 7th, hit a two-run double in the 9th and hit an RBI single in the 10th.
