Slade 5-for-6 Against Spartans
Thursday, October 9th, 2031
Tucker Slade put on a hitting clinic today as the Rock River Rats dumped the Sandy Springs Spartans 16-5 at The Coliseum.
The Rock River right fielder made Sandy Springs defenders earn their pay, lashing Sandy Springs pitching for 5 hits in 6 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it."
"Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Slade said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."
Tucker Slade singled in the 1st, grounded out in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, singled in the 7th, walked in a run in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
To date, Slade has collected 74 hits for a .300 average. He has posted 2 home runs, scored 47 runs and driven in 39 runs.
