 | Tuesday, May 7th, 2013: Kumagai 5-5 Against Stingrays "It was like I was hitting little league pitching again," said Hiroya Kumagai after his 5-hit performanace against the Stingrays. "No offense meant to Maui, but I could see the ball that well. But this wasn't a kid league park, it was Ballpark of Chihuahua! I'm just not too happy that we lost 6-4" The Chihuahua shortstop had a fantastic day at the plate, knocking out 5 hits in 5 at-bats. His manager elaborated after the game to the press, saying, "Hiroya worked the entire offseason on trying to shorten his swing and stay inside the ball and the hard work is paying off in base hits." "That's what I'm trying to do," Kumagai said. "Be quick to the ball and let it travel a little farther so I get a better look at it. It sure did work today." H. Kumagai singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a two-run double in the 4th, doubled in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off M. Porter in the 8th. Kumagai is currently hitting at a .276 pace with 1 home run and 13 RBIs. |
