Thornton Smacks 5 Hits for Nationals
No matter what the Chicago (APP) Cubs threw at him today, Lamar Thornton hit it. He easily handled Cubs pitching, going 5 for 5 and helping the Nationals to a 27-3 triumph at Las Américas Complex.

"The way I was swinging today, I think I could have closed my eyes and hit the ball," he told BNN reporters in the postgame interview.

Told of Thornton's quip, Cubs skipper Jose Sixtos said he "would take him up on that next time."

Lamar Thornton singled in the 1st, hit a three-run triple in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, walked in a run in the 5th, singled in the 6th, walked in the 8th and hit a two-run home run off Jose Mata in the 8th.

Thus far this season Thornton is hitting .347 with 8 home runs, 41 RBIs and 48 runs scored. He has 52 hits in 150 at-bats and has played in 43 games.
