Great Stroke: Koppala Gets 5 Hits Sunday, July 21st, 2019 It was a big day with the bat for Brahmadanda Koppala of the Tokyo Yakult Swallows at Ballpark of Otofuke College as he bashed out hit after hit after hit to defeat Hanshin 26-0. After the game he said, "Guys, it's just one game in a long season. I hit it hard and found some holes today. 5 hits in 7 tries. But my hits are not the big thing in the game. The victory is the important thing. That's the story." At the end of the game Koppala had collected 5 hits in 7 at-bats and a small mention in the record book. He was happy. He had a big day with the bat. And the Swallows had won. Brahmadanda Koppala flied out in the 2nd, hit a two-run single in the 4th, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, flied out in the 7th, singled in the 9th and hit a two-run double in the 9th. This season Koppala has hit at a .313 clip with 12 RBIs, 1 home runs and 13 runs scored. He has played in 18 games. |
