Hits Galore: Moore Drills 5 Hits
Sunday, March 25th, 2018
What a day for Troy Moore of the Texas Longhorns! A 5-hit hitting spree! That doesn't happen every day! He ripped Ole Miss pitching apart at Ballpark of Celebration College and sparked the Longhorns to a 10-3 victory. He wrote his name in the record books, finishing his special day 5 for 6.
"I'm usually a first ball hitter," Moore told BNN reporters in the postgame press conference. "I think pitchers think batters are going to let the first one go by. I never do. I've always found that it's better to pull the trigger early in the count. Pitchers get real nasty when they get ahead of you, so I try to avoid that."
Troy Moore singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit a two-run single in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and grounded out in the 8th.
This year Moore has hit no home runs and posted a .361 batting average.
