Virginia Tech's Bader Goes Ballistic with 5 Hits Sunday, May 7th , 2051 A jubilant Curt Bader joined the postgame press conference at English Field today to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Wake Forest Demon Deacons pitching staff he had just vanquished. "It may not have looked like it," said the Virginia Tech Hokies left fielder, "but I saw some awful good pitches today. If luck hadn't been on my side it might have turned out a lot different." That would not have been the conclusion of anyone who saw his dominant 5-for-5 hitting performance, which led the Hokies to a 7-6 win. "He made it look easy," said Sergio Sánchez, manager of the Demon Deacons. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously." Curt Bader singled in the 1st, walked in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 8th and doubled in the 10th. Bader's current batting average stands at .349 and he has chalked up 8 home runs and 44 RBIs. View Boxscore View Game Log |
