Simental Torches Astros Orange for 5 Hits
Chicago N (DSL) right fielder Edgar Simental had a big day at Chicago Cubs Complex against the Houston (DSL) Astros Orange. The 21-year-old, who is not typically considered a big threat with the bat, went 5-for-5 and led to the 10-3 Cubs Blue triumph over Houston (DSL).

"Hey, I'm as surprised as you guys are," Simental said in his postgame comments, smiling as he scolded the press corps for underestimating him. "Maybe I'm not so bad at the plate after all."

Edgar Simental singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Ernesto Romero in the 5th, singled in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.

This year, Simental is hitting .256 with 5 home runs and 24 RBIs to his credit. He has gotten on base at a .343 clip and scored 25 runs.
