Carpini Cracks 5 Hits Monday, July 12th , 2049 Getting 5 hits in a game has always been memorable feat in baseball. In the Durham's 7-5 win over Rochester today, second baseman Sesto Carpini was red-hot, scorching them for hit after hit at Frontier Field. "To hit the ball consistently well, you have to relax," Carpini said afterward. "I was relaxed for the first four hits, but I have to admit, I got a little tight when I realized I had a chance for five. On the last at-bat, I was ready to swing at anything close." Sesto Carpini hit a two-run double in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 8th, singled in the 10th, flied out in the 12th, grounded out in the 15th, doubled in the 18th and grounded out in the 19th. Thus far this season Carpini is hitting .225 with 5 home runs, 33 RBIs and 35 runs scored. He has 65 hits in 289 at-bats and has played in 78 games. |
