Sa 5-for-6 for Valencia
Friday, May 11th , 2063
A jubilant Shu-de Sa joined the postgame press conference at Chico's Bail Bonds Field to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the San Fernando Bears pitching staff he had just vanquished.
"It may not have looked like it," said the Valencia Stars second 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-6 hitting performance, which led to the 9-4 Stars win.
"He made it look easy," said Gonzalo Escobar, manager of the Bears. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously."
Shu-de Sa singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Ben Weaver in the 7th, singled in the 8th and flied out in the 9th.
For the year, Sa is batting .254 with 31 hits and 7 home runs. He has scored 16 times and driven in 20.
