Guerrero Torches Cardinals for 5 Hits
Wednesday, June 28th , 2006
New York left fielder Vladimir Guerrero could do no wrong in his team's 10-5 win over the Cardinals, as he collected 5 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Cardinals skipper Kendall Cards said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
Guerrero 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."
Vladimir Guerrero singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 7th.
So far this year in 75 games, Guerrero is hitting .344 with 12 home runs, 54 RBIs and 49 runs scored.
