Mata 5-for-6 Against Blubs Bay
Mike Mata put on a hitting clinic as the Hartford Defenders dumped the Blubs Bay Flappy Bois, 9-6, at Flappy Bois Park.

The Hartford catcher made Blubs Bay defenders earn their pay, lashing Blubs Bay pitching for 5 hits in 6 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it."

"Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Mata said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."

Mike Mata singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit a three-run home run off Pavlov Poldnikov in the 5th, singled in the 7th, grounded out in the 10th and singled in the 12th.

For the year, Mata has hit at a .361 clip with 19 RBIs, 5 home runs and 27 runs scored.
