Great Stroke: Talamantez Gets 6 Hits Tuesday, September 5th, 2034 Even as a kid, Orlando Talamantez said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Bloomfield Road today, Talamantez showed how well he learned that lesson. The 22-year-old first baseman had 6 hits in 6 at-bats for the Wichita Wolverines, helping his team knock off the Buzzard's Bay Beetlecats by a score of 15-2. "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." Orlando Talamantez singled in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Orlando Guzmán in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th and doubled in the 9th. So far this season Talamantez has 20 home runs and a .360 batting average. View Boxscore View Game Log |
