Short Blisters Las Vegas Tuesday, September 8th , 2048 It's not something you read about in the sports pages every day -- a 5-for-5 day. For many, it might come around only once in a career -- and for Ryan Short, it came around today. The 29-year-old shortstop scattered hits all over Cashman Field to pace the Louisville Bats to a 8-4 victory over the Las Vegas 51s. Las Vegas skipper Francisco Pena told reporters in the press room that "Short deserves a hat-tip." "He hit some good pitches against us," he said. "In fact, according to our scouting reports, Short hit several that he is not supposed to be able to hit." Ryan Short singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 9th. For the season Short is hitting .304, batted in 15 runs with no home runs and 25 runs scored. |
