Compton Smacks 5 Hits for Cardinals
Speaking with reporters after a dominating hitting performance, Ken Compton said his club's tilt with the Kingsport Mets "felt almost like batting practice." The 22-year-old starting pitcher went a remarkable 5-for-5 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 Johnson City Cardinals, who were topped by the Mets, 19-14.

"It's a good lesson for him, I guess," Cardinals manager Julio Rivero said. "Sometimes Ken is going to lose. But I would rather him go 5-for-5 and lose than go 0-for-5 and lose."

Ken Compton walked in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off David Salcido in the 4th, singled in the 6th, tripled in the 8th and doubled in the 9th.

On the season Compton has a 1-1 record with a 12.84 ERA.
