 | Friday, August 13th, 2027: Silva Slams 5 Hits for Los Angeles What a day for Hernán Silva of the Los Angeles Dodgers! A 5-hit hitting spree! That doesn't happen every day! He ripped Chicago (N) pitching apart at Dodger Stadium and sparked the Dodgers to a 15-3 victory. He wrote his name in the record books, finishing his special day 5 for 5. "I'm usually a first ball hitter," Silva told BNN reporters in the postgame press conference. "I think pitchers think batters are going to let the first one go by. I never do. I've always found that it's better to pull the trigger early in the count. Pitchers get real nasty when they get ahead of you, so I try to avoid that." H. Silva singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, singled in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off J. Oliva in the 7th. In 2027 Silva has put up a .325 batting average with 123 hits, 13 home runs and 61 RBIs. |
