Valencia Has Hot Hand, Bangs 5 hits
After a 5-hit effort to lead Flagstaff's 21-3 victory over the Tempe Impalas, center fielder Xavier Valencia 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 Rookie-level is really something special."

The 21-year-old player earned his accolades today at Peoria Sports Complex with a spectacular 5-for-7 game against the Impalas.

"His swing is getting there," said Blue Devils skipper David Knopf, who spoke glowingly of Valencia 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. Xavier did that to perfection today."

Xavier Valencia grounded out in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, singled in the 6th, singled in the 7th and struck out in the 9th.
