Jones Rips Memphis for 5 Hits Wednesday, August 29th, 2035 Brian Jones put on a hitting clinic today as the New England Whalers dumped the Memphis Redbirds 12-7 at Little Phoenix Park. The New England left fielder made Memphis defenders earn their pay, lashing Memphis pitching for 5 hits in 6 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it." "Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Jones said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch." Brian Jones singled in the 1st, hit a two-run single in the 2nd, hit a two-run single in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Jeffrey Glass in the 7th and singled in the 9th. In 10 games Jones is hitting .429 this season with 18 hits, 2 home runs, 8 RBIs, 3 walks, .467 OBP and has scored 9 runs. View Boxscore View Game Log |
