Kersten 5-for-5 Against Phillies Sunday, December 14th , 2042 A jubilant Casper Kersten joined the postgame press conference at Bright House Field today to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Philadelphia (WIN) Phillies pitching staff he had just vanquished. "It may not have looked like it," said the Chicago (WIN) White Sox center 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 the White Sox to a 16-0 win. "He made it look easy," said , manager of the Phillies. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously." Casper Kersten singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, walked in the 6th, walked in the 7th and hit an RBI double in the 9th. For the year Kersten is batting .328 with 19 hits and 1 home run. He has scored 14 times and driven in 7. |
