Outlaws Roche Smacks 5 Hits Saturday, May 6th, 2023 Players get multihit games all the time. But a 5-hit game comes around only once in a blue moon. It happened at Corvettes Ballpark when Franck Roche of Calgary scattered 5 hits all over the ballpark against the Trois-Rivieres Saints. He walloped 5 hits in 6 at-bats in his career-day performance to help the Outlaws get by the Saints 18-2. In a talkative and jovial mood after the game, the second baseman of the Outlaws said, "Whoa, my swing was really, really there today. I made some good, sweet-spot contact and when that happens... good things happen... like 5-6. I could get used to a lot of days like this one." Franck Roche hit a solo-shot off Jean-Luc Defrance in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, grounded out in the 4th, hit a two-run single in the 5th and doubled in the 7th. A look at his current stats shows Roche with a .331 average, 17 home runs, 57 RBIs and 57 runs scored. He has played in 57 games. |
