Bower Cracks 5 Hits
It wasn't just another day at the ballpark for Rich Bower. Bower went on a tear and cracked hit after hit off Reno pitchers. When the dust settled on the diamond at Paul Owens Stadium, he had a 5-for-5 line and a day he will long remember. And the Buffalo LightSabres had a win, 13-4, over the Silver Sox.

"Yeah, it'll be something nice to tell the grandkids, but it won't get me a hit tomorrow," he joked in the postgame interview.

Rich Bower singled in the 1st, doubled in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Dick Poppe in the 6th, hit a solo-shot off Johnathan May in the 8th and was hit by a pitch in the 9th.

For the year, Bower is batting .463 with 25 hits and 6 home runs. He has scored 22 times and driven in 21.
