Rivadeneira Cracks 5 Hits Saturday, August 19th , 2028 Aberdeen third baseman Juan Rivadeneira could do no wrong in today's 21-2 win over the Sea Unicorns as he collected 5 hits. "Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Sea Unicorns skipper Shawn Bowman said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts." Rivadeneira 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." Juan Rivadeneira singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit a two-run double in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, walked in the 6th, grounded out in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.
