Estrada Bashes 5 Base Hits Thursday, June 24th , 2145 Fans at Stars Ballpark got to see not only a home-team victory today, but also one of the most impressive feats of hitting of the season. The Oakland Stars outplayed the Plano Rancheros en route to a 16-2 win, but the standout was shortstop Juan Estrada. Estrada netted 5 hits in 5 at-bats and finished with a dynamite game line. "Hey, we tried everything we could think of to get him out," Rancheros manager said in postgame comments. "We threw everything but the kitchen sink against him and he hit it. Maybe we should've thrown the sink, too." Juan Estrada singled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, walked in the 4th, singled in the 5th and singled in the 7th. For the year Estrada is batting .267 with 5 home runs, 28 RBIs and 31 runs scored. |
