Esposito Smacks 5 Hits for Pirates Thursday, July 17th , 2098 Getting 5 hits in a game doesn't happen every day, so it was a special occasion for Pirates's Nate Esposito at Ballpark of Pearl River today. Esposito put up a 5-for-6 line against the Baltimore (Rk+) Orioles, swinging the bat with authority all day despite his club's eventual 7-6 loss. "I'm just out there to try and help the team win," Esposito said after the game. "I had some real good at-bats today. I made good, solid contact and luckily no one caught 'em. I had a great day, but it's disappointing to lose." Disappointed or not, he still gets his name in the record books. Nate Esposito singled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, doubled in the 8th and singled in the 10th. Esposito is hitting .400 this season with 1 home run, 5 RBIs and 15 runs scored. He has 28 hits in 70 at-bats. View Boxscore View Game Log |
