5-Hit Blitz by Texas's Giesbrecht
John Giesbrecht was at the head of a Texas hit parade today at Colorado Field. The second baseman went to the plate 5 times and came away with 5 hits, sparking the Rangers to a 13-1 victory over the Colorado Rockies.

"I told the guys in the dugout, just be thinking about hitting the ball hard somewhere," the sweet-swinging Giesbrecht told reporters after the game. "Seems like it worked out well for us today."

Rockies skipper Nicholas Carrey Jr. said later that the club gave up "too much plate."

"Not the way we planned it," he said. "Every hitter in the league will rip you when you do that."

John Giesbrecht hit a two-run home run off Vince Scripp in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, tripled in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Xu-gang Zhou in the 6th, doubled in the 7th and walked in the 8th.

Giesbrecht is currently batting .285 with 16 home runs and 46 RBIs.
