5-for-5 Day for Yelland Thursday, June 23rd, 2033 Even as a kid, Pat Yelland said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At LaGrave Field today, Yelland showed how well he learned that lesson. The 28-year-old left fielder had 5 hits in 5 at-bats for the Fort Worth Cats, helping his team knock off the Silver Lake Baristas by a score of 18-2. "They always said, just keep your eye on the ball, don't overswing, make contact and you never know what will happen," he said. "That's all I did today." Pat Yelland doubled in the 2nd, hit a two-run triple in the 4th, singled in the 5th, hit a two-run double in the 7th and singled in the 8th. Presently Yelland is batting .221 and has collected no home runs, 6 RBIs, .312 OBP and scored 10 runs. View Boxscore View Game Log |
