Fortin Slams 5 Hits for Helena
After a 5-hit effort to lead Helena's 28-2 victory over the Chicago (APP) Cubs, left fielder John Fortin told BNN beat writers it had been "a special day."

"It really doesn't matter whether it's sandlot ball, high school or college, two hits in a game is nice," he said. "Three or four is better, but five or more is out of sight. And to do that at the Appalachian League-level is really something special."

The 21-year-old player earned his accolades today at Kindrick Legion Field with a spectacular 5-for-5 game against the Cubs.

"His swing is getting there," said Brewers skipper Seem Studley, who spoke glowingly of Fortin after the game. "We want him to be quick with his swing, short and compact. We want him to be patient and go the other way when he can. John did that to perfection today."

John Fortin singled in the 1st, walked in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Trevor Woodbury in the 2nd, walked in the 3rd, hit a two-run double in the 5th, hit a three-run home run off Jose Mata in the 6th and singled in the 8th.

Thus far this season Fortin is hitting .337 with 7 home runs, 29 RBIs and 29 runs scored. He has 30 hits in 89 at-bats and has played in 25 games.
