Mejia Bangs Out 5 Base Hits
|
After a 5-hit effort to lead Asheville's 8-2 victory over the Delmarva Shorebirds, center fielder Jordan Mejia told BNN beat writers it had been "a special day."
"It really doesn't matter whether it's sandlot ball, high school or college, two hits in a game is nice," he said. "Three or four is better, but five or more is out of sight. And to do that at the Single A Baseball-level is really something special."
The 24-year-old player earned his accolades at Arthur W. Perdue Stadium with a spectacular 5-for-5 game against the Shorebirds.
"His swing is getting there," said Tourists skipper , who spoke glowingly of Mejia after the game. "We want him to be quick with his swing, short and compact. We want him to be patient and go the other way when he can. Jordan did that to perfection."
Jordan Mejia walked in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Mario Mares in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, singled in the 6th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
Mejia on the season is hitting .293 with 5 home runs. His stats include 20 RBIs and 21 runs scored.
