Great Stroke: Pierce Gets 5 Hits Monday, June 22nd , 2054 Chris Pierce put on a hitting clinic as the Manhatten Meatheads dumped the Calgary Cowboys, 27-8, at Manhattan Metro Field. The Manhatten left fielder made Calgary defenders earn their pay, lashing Calgary 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," Pierce said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch." Chris Pierce hit a two-run home run off Carlos Flores in the 1st, grounded out in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit a two-run double in the 5th, hit an RBI double in the 6th, hit a three-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 7th and walked in the 8th. Currently Pierce is batting .350 with 26 home runs and 60 RBIs. View Boxscore View Game Log |
