Some moments become linked with a particular player's career forever. Manny Colon of the Thunder Bay Lighting had one of those moments when he went 5-for-5 at the plate in his team's 10-7 win over the Manchester Mooses at Moose Head Stadium.

"I won't forget this anytime soon, and I don't expect it to happen too often," the 19-year-old shortstop told reporters in the postgame interview. "I'll be happy to just get a hit or two every day. Enough to hang around the league a while longer. Like 10, maybe 15 more years."

Manny Colon singled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, walked in the 6th, singled in the 7th and hit a two-run double in the 9th.

Colon is hitting .365 this year with 8 home runs and 41 RBIs. He also has an OBP of .485, 36 walks and scored 31 times.
