Tortugas Pitching Ravaged by Markwood
Monday, July 15th , 2097
Joe Markwood of the Flying Tigers was unstoppable in today's 11-2 victory over the Daytona Tortugas at Jackie Robinson Ballpark. He battered them for 5 hits in 5 at-bats.
"Boy, I was on the mark today," said the Lakeland catcher after the game. "I could see the ball real well. It's a great feeling to do this. And besides, 5-for-5 won't hurt your batting average like 0-for-5 will."
Joe Markwood singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 7th, hit a solo-shot off Antonio Astorga in the 8th and hit a two-run single in the 9th.
This year Markwood is batting .354 with 3 home runs and 16 RBIs. In 25 games he has scored 15 times.
