5-for-5 Day for Knopp Sunday, September 18th , 2044 It doesn't happen very often, but it did for Mick Knopp today -- a 5-hit effort. He went on a rampage at New Britain Stadium and paced the Yard Goats to a 11-3 win over the Augusta GreenJackets. After his dynamite batting performance, the Hartford left fielder told reporters that he "just tried to get in a good count and have a good at-bat. That's all I can control." His philosophy paid dividends today. He slammed 5 hits in 5 tries and put his name in the record book. Mick Knopp doubled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI double in the 7th and singled in the 8th. Thus far this season Knopp is hitting .272 with 17 home runs, 66 RBIs and 68 runs scored. He has 85 hits in 312 at-bats and has played in 102 games. |
