Graham Belts Bunch of Base Hits
Monday, July 15th, 2024
Players get multi-hit games all the time. But a 5-hit game only comes around once in a blue moon. It happened at Horseman Field when Patrick Graham of South Bay scattered 5 hits all over the ballpark against the Amarillo Horseman. He was down and a little subdued with mixed feelings in the postgame interview. "It was a good day for me, but not a good day for the Arsenal. The bottom line in baseball is to win. We didn't do it today," he told the press after the game. He walloped 5 hits in 5 at-bats in his career day performance, but it was the Horseman, who won the ballgame 7-6. However, the right fielder of the Arsenal did have this to say: "My swing was really, really there today. I made some good, solid contact and when that happens... good things happen. Sure, 5-for-5 and losing is better than going 0-for-5 and losing. I'll take 2-4 and a win and be overjoyed. I ain't greedy." Patrick Graham singled in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off r#19652> in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.
This season Graham has hit at a .388 clip with 9 RBIs, 1 home runs and 13 runs scored. He has played in 21 games.
