Hodgkins Sensational, 5-for-5
A jubilant Vance Hodgkins joined the postgame press conference at Ballpark of Fort Wayne HS to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Shell Oil Royals pitching staff he had just vanquished.

"It may not have looked like it," said the Firestone Fires third baseman, "but I saw some awful good pitches today. If luck hadn't been on my side it might have turned out a lot different."

That would not have been the conclusion of anyone who saw his dominant 5-for-5 hitting performance, which led to the 12-4 Fires win.

"He made it look easy," said Damien Ravenshurst, manager of the Royals. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously."

Vance Hodgkins singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Israel Méndez in the 5th, walked in the 6th, tripled in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.

Posting a .388 batting average to date, Hodgkins has 7 home runs and 36 RBIs.
