Ward Batters Pensacola Big Time Monday, April 7th , 2059 Gabe Ward knows as well as anyone that in baseball, the biggest contracts go to the biggest hitters. At Regions Field, he made his case to be considered among that group. The 24-year-old catcher hammered 5 hits in 6 chances, though the remarkable effort came even as his Birmingham Barons fell, 8-7, to the Pensacola Blue Wahoos. "We made some bad pitches and he took advantage of it," Blue Wahoos manager told BNN sportswriters after the game. "Thankfully, we were able to do enough elsewhere that Ward wasn't the difference." Gabe Ward singled in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off D.J. Dempsey in the 7th, singled in the 9th and grounded out in the 11th. View Boxscore View Game Log |
