The Port-au-Prince first baseman had a field day in the 13-6 triumph over the New Delhi Llamas, finishing up with a 5-5 day and a spot in the league record book.
"My hitting philosophy is pretty simple," he said. "I focus on just seeing the ball and I try to get a good pitch."
Well, Poulin must have focused at least 5 times and apparently got some good pitches, too. It was one of his best days ever with the bat.
M. Poulin hit an RBI single in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off L. Chávez in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and hit a three-run home run off H. Mitchell in the 8th.
This season in 62 games Poulin is batting .244 with 5 home runs, 20 RBIs and has scored 9 times. |  | Wednesday, August 7th, 2013: Kobayashi Injured, Day-to-Day Knights star reliever Norihisa Kobayashi may be sitting it out a few days after he picked up an injury in yesterday's game against the Philadelphia Freedoms. He sustained a finger blister while throwing a pitch. Kobayashi isn't expected to miss a lot of time. However, doctors want to be cautious. They said he would be day-to-day for about 2 weeks.
This season Kobayashi has chalked up a 2.10 ERA while ringing up no saves with no wins and 4 losses. He has made no relief appearances, pitching 81.1 innings, giving up 61 hits and holding opponents to a .199 batting average. Kobayashi has also recorded 62 strikeouts and allowed 33 walks. | | | | | Yesterday's Games | | Eastern League | | Away Team | Home Team | Result | Time | Winning Pitcher | Losing Pitcher | | Royal City | Syracuse | 3-8 | 7:05 pm | J.Watson (4-2, 2.22 ERA) | O.Ruíz (9-10, 4.96 ERA) | | Mount Prospect | New York | 6-3 | 7:05 pm | A.Gravel (7-6, 3.19 ERA) | E.Batista (8-5, 3.42 ERA) | | St. Paul | Phoenix | 9-2 | 7:05 pm | E.Romero (9-7, 3.46 ERA) | A.Ramírez (1-2, 5.60 ERA) | | Pacolet | Marquette | 10-8 | 7:05 pm | Á.Coronado (9-4, 3.83 ERA) | T.Yamada (4-8, 4.46 ERA) | | Hattiesburg | Tijuana | 0-4 | 7:05 pm | K.Xú (7-10, 4.45 ERA) | D.Ervin (10-13, 4.33 ERA) | | Lublin | Madrid | 0-1 | 7:05 pm | S.Hong (6-6, 4.99 ERA) | V.Rosado (6-12, 4.84 ERA) | | West Freehold | Quezon City | 2-7 | 7:05 pm | C.Zavala (8-15, 4.43 ERA) | N.Hirai (5-5, 3.76 ERA) | | New Delhi | Port-au-Prince | 4-0 | 7:05 pm | J.Bennett (5-7, 2.91 ERA) | F.Lozano (4-2, 4.63 ERA) | | New Orleans | Yokoham | 5-1 | 7:05 pm | G.Yang (8-2, 2.52 ERA) | B.Steele (1-11, 4.01 ERA) | | Western League | | Away Team | Home Team | Result | Time | Winning Pitcher | Losing Pitcher | | Rome | Nashville | 0-1 | 7:05 pm | D.McLaughlin (4-5, 3.45 ERA) | A.Morales (5-7, 4.72 ERA) | | Chihuahua | Oakland | 2-3 | 7:05 pm | L.Díaz (14-6, 3.02 ERA) | R.Silva (1-1, 3.63 ERA) | | Zhengzhou | Caracas | 4-6 | 7:05 pm | C.Vargas (8-12, 4.37 ERA) | E.Watson (10-11, 3.96 ERA) | | Claxton | Limerick | 6-2 | 7:05 pm | H.Horsfall (14-8, 2.86 ERA) | R.Lent (6-10, 2.83 ERA) | | Indianapolis | Samoan | 7-2 | 7:05 pm | R.Moreno (11-8, 3.75 ERA) | M.Martínez (10-8, 2.78 ERA) | | Maui | Melbourne | 5-3 | 7:05 pm | W.Liu (3-2, 1.85 ERA) | J.Rivera (2-4, 2.96 ERA) | | San Diego | Calgary | 7-6 | 7:05 pm | F.van Hoof (2-0, 3.20 ERA) | M.Olvera (5-7, 5.96 ERA) | | Philadelphia | Hartford | 3-4 | 7:05 pm | T.Arden (5-1, 5.71 ERA) | A.Méndez (2-2, 4.15 ERA) | | Burlington | Cape Town | 5-7 | 7:05 pm | J.López (4-1, 5.17 ERA) | É.Durand (5-13, 5.46 ERA) | | |
