Águila Cracks 5 Hits
Monday, September 11th , 2051
Greenville left fielder Juan Águila could do no wrong in today's 8-6 win over the Machine as he collected 5 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Machine skipper Pat Miller said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
Águila agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.
"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."
Juan Águila singled in the 1st, doubled in the 2nd, grounded out in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Derrick Stafford in the 7th, singled in the 9th and singled in the 10th.
For the year Águila is hitting .308 with 25 home runs. His stats include 67 runs batted in and 79 runs scored.
