Meyer Goes 5-5 Against Kelowna
Wednesday, April 26th, 2023
What a day for Kevin Meyer of the Calgary Outlaws! A 5-hit hitting spree! That doesn't happen every day! He ripped Kelowna pitching apart at Corvettes Ballpark and sparked the Outlaws to a 25-2 victory. He wrote his name in the record books, finishing his special day 5 for 5. "I'm usually a first ball hitter," Meyer 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." Kevin Meyer singled in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Joe Reilly in the 1st, singled in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, walked in a run in the 6th and singled in the 7th.
This season Meyer is batting .308 with 56 hits, 11 home runs, 44 RBIs, .425 OBP and has scored 45 runs.
