Redondo Tags Sugar Kings for 5 Hits Thursday, June 5th , 2053 Even as a kid, Juan Redondo said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Sugardome II, Redondo showed how well he learned that lesson. The 25-year-old second baseman had 5 hits in 6 at-bats for the Osaka Takoyaki, helping his team knock off the Havana Sugar Kings by a score of 5-4. "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." Juan Redondo singled in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Nick Rennie in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Nick Rennie in the 4th, struck out in the 7th, doubled in the 9th and hit a solo-shot off Rick Licea in the 11th. So far this year, Redondo is batting .402 with 9 home runs, 36 RBIs and 36 runs scored. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |
