5-Hit Blitz by Callahan
Friday, May 13th , 2072
Speaking with reporters after a dominating hitting performance, Earl Callahan said his club's tilt with the Chibougamou Onions "felt almost like batting practice." The 21-year-old catcher went a remarkable 5-for-6 at the plate.
"I saw the ball well and could just about hit it anywhere I wanted," he recalled later.
However, his sensational day wasn't enough for the Luray Bulldogs, who were topped by the Onions, 4-3.
"It's a good lesson for him, I guess," Bulldogs manager said. "Sometimes Earl is going to lose. But I would rather him go 5-for-6 and lose than go 0-for-6 and lose."
Earl Callahan doubled in the 1st, flied out in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Mike Cash in the 4th, doubled in the 7th, singled in the 9th, singled in the 11th and walked in the 13th.
So far this season, Callahan has 1 home run and a .419 batting average.
