5-for-5 Day for Wiley Wednesday, August 6th , 2053 Speaking with reporters after a dominating hitting performance, Ray Wiley said his club's tilt with the Oklahoma City 89ers "felt almost like batting practice." The 23-year-old left fielder went a remarkable 5-for-5 at the plate. "I saw the ball well and could just about hit it anywhere I wanted," he recalled later. However, his sensational day wasn't enough for the Mexico City Cerveceros, who were topped by the 89ers, 11-6. "It's a good lesson for him, I guess," Cerveceros manager Floyd Walton said. "Sometimes Ray is going to lose. But I would rather him go 5-for-5 and lose than go 0-for-5 and lose." Ray Wiley singled in the 1st, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off Mitsunari Iwasaki in the 9th. This season in 105 games, Wiley is batting .358 with 34 home runs, 77 RBIs and has scored 66 times. View Boxscore View Game Log |
