García Strokes 5 Hits Monday, July 31st , 2062 A jubilant Cristóbal García joined the postgame press conference at Sycamores Field to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Lexington Sycamores pitching staff he had just vanquished. "It may not have looked like it," said the Denison Monarchs right fielder, "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 8-1 Monarchs win. "He made it look easy," said Luis Valentín, manager of the Sycamores. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously." Cristóbal García singled in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI triple in the 5th, doubled in the 6th and hit an RBI single in the 7th. At present, García is batting .297 with 35 hits and 2 home runs. He has knocked in 10 runs and scored 16 times. View Boxscore View Game Log |
