5-Hit Blitz by Minnesota (NYP)'s Chang
Speaking with reporters after a dominating hitting performance, Seung-jun Chang said his club's tilt with the Connecticut Tigers "felt almost like batting practice." The 24-year-old shortstop went a remarkable 5-for-6 at the plate.

"I saw the ball well and could just about hit it anywhere I wanted," he recalled later.

However, his sensational day wasn't enough for the Minnesota (NYP) Twins, who were topped by the Tigers, 18-17.

"It's a good lesson for him, I guess," Twins manager Anel De Los Santos said. "Sometimes Seung-jun is going to lose. But I would rather him go 5-for-6 and lose than go 0-for-6 and lose."

Seung-jun Chang singled in the 2nd, hit a three-run home run off Alan Grossfeld in the 3rd, hit an RBI triple in the 4th, struck out in the 6th, hit a three-run home run off Scott King in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.

On the season, Chang is batting .236 with 5 home runs and 39 RBIs. He has played in 73 games.
