Davis Sizzles -- Smokes Indians for 5 Hits
Sunday, May 23rd, 2032
Even as a kid, Tony Davis said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Apollos Ballpark today, Davis showed how well he learned that lesson.
The 18-year-old catcher had 5 hits in 6 at-bats for the Riverside Poly, helping his team knock off the Jefferson Indians by a score of 13-12.
"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."
Tony Davis hit a two-run home run off Bill Crabbe in the 2nd, grounded out in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI double in the 7th, singled in the 9th and hit an RBI single in the 11th.
In his stats this season, Davis has posted a batting average of .234 with 47 hits in 201 at-bats, 7 home runs and 30 RBIs. He has also scored 33 runs, walked 24 times and compiled a .326 OBP.
