Fuentes Bashes 5 Base Hits
Monday, August 21st, 2056
Even as a kid, Jorge Fuentes said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At BB&T Ballpark today, Fuentes showed how well he learned that lesson.
The 24-year-old third baseman had 5 hits in 5 at-bats for the Winston-Salem Dash, helping his team knock off the Myrtle Beach Pelicans by a score of 8-5.
"They always said, just keep your eye on the ball, don't overswing, make contact and you never know what will happen," he said. "That's all I did today."
Jorge Fuentes hit a two-run single in the 1st, doubled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
In 76 games this year Fuentes has posted a .357 average and put up these numbers: 10 home runs, 57 RBIs and 38 runs scored.
