5-Hit Blitz by Hyden
Monday, August 17th , 2111
Boston (Rk+) center fielder Andre Hyden could do no wrong in his team's 3-2 win over the Twins, as he collected 5 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Twins skipper Franklin Jimenez said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
Hyden agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.
"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."
Andre Hyden hit an RBI single in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th, walked in the 9th and hit an RBI single in the 10th.
During the current season Hyden is batting at a .301 clip with 1 home run and 6 RBIs. He has played in 26 games and scored 7 times.
