Villa Batters Saitama Seibu for 5 Hits Tuesday, June 29th, 2021 It was a parade of hits for Juan Villa of the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles... one right after another... a total of 5 for the day. He ravaged the Saitama Seibu Lions for 5 hits in his 6 at-bats and propelled the Golden Eagles to a 23-6 victory. "Villa was really good and we were really bad," groaned the Lions manager. "Next time he's that hot, we'll just walk him." Juan Villa flied out in the 1st, hit a two-run single in the 3rd, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, walked in the 6th and singled in the 8th. This year Villa is batting .444 with 24 hits, 2 home runs, 11 RBIs, 11 walks, .545 OBP and has scored 16 runs. |
