5 Hits for Rockies Morgan
Some days you can't win for losing. Just ask Kenny Morgan -- he was the King of Swing against the Paints, but his Rockies were beaten, 9-8, anyway.

The Des Moines HS third baseman had 6 chances against Newport News HS and delivered 5 hits in a sensational game.

"Unbelievable feeling," he told the press. "It felt great to be hitting like that, but a downer when you look at the scoreboard. 5-for-6 does wonders for your confidence, but it's a shame we couldn't win, too."

Kenny Morgan hit a solo-shot off Keith Sale in the 1st, struck out in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Doug Hurtado in the 7th and singled in the 9th.

In 19 games this season, Morgan has batted at a .373 pace with 31 hits and 8 home runs.
