Ortiz Sensational, 5-for-5
Monday, September 5th , 2050
A jubilant Enrique Ortiz joined the postgame press conference at Blue Raiders Ballpark to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Phoenix Palisades pitching staff he had just vanquished.
"It may not have looked like it," said the Kinsale Fisherman left fielder, "but I saw some awful good pitches today. If luck hadn't been on my side it might have turned out a lot different."
That would not have been the conclusion of anyone who saw his dominant 5-for-5 hitting performance, which led to the 15-10 Fisherman win.
"He made it look easy," said , manager of the Palisades. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously."
Enrique Ortiz hit a three-run home run off Adam Migliaccio in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th and singled in the 7th.
In 55 games Ortiz is hitting .379 this season with 78 hits, 11 home runs, 33 RBIs, 21 walks, .439 OBP and has scored 36 runs.
