Ruiz Socks It to Naturals, Cracks 6 Hits Monday, August 7th , 2045 Victor Ruiz exploded for a barrage of base hits today at Arvest Ballpark. The Trenton right fielder had a field day in the 36-3 triumph over the Northwest Arkansas Naturals, finishing 6-for-8. "My hitting philosophy is simple," he said. "I focus on just seeing the ball and I try to get a good pitch." Ruiz must have focused at least 6 times and apparently got some good pitches, too, leading to one of his best days ever with the bat. Victor Ruiz singled in the 1st, hit an RBI double in the 2nd, grounded out in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit a two-run double in the 4th, hit an RBI double in the 5th, hit a two-run double in the 6th, walked in the 8th and grounded out in the 9th. Looking at his stats this year, Ruiz has compiled a .285 batting average, while hitting 4 home runs and driving in 31 runs. He has played in 64 games and scored 41 runs. |
