Big Day with Bat: Tarantino 5-for-6
Wednesday, December 18th , 2047
Mike Tarantino put on a hitting clinic today as the Ohio State University Buckeyes dumped the Pennsylvania State University Nittany Lions 12-7 at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park.
The Ohio State University third baseman made Pennsylvania State University defenders earn their pay, lashing Pennsylvania State University pitching for 5 hits in 6 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it."
"Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Tarantino said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."
Mike Tarantino doubled in the 1st, tripled in the 2nd, hit an RBI double in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, singled in the 8th and hit an RBI double in the 9th.
This season Tarantino is batting .355 with 86 hits, 1 home run, 34 RBIs, .408 OBP and has scored 42 runs.
