Vasquez on Fire: 5-for-6 for Albuquerque
Tony Vasquez put on a hitting clinic as the Albuquerque Cacti dumped the Billings Mustangs, 19-5, at Cobb Field.

The Albuquerque right fielder made Billings defenders earn their pay, lashing Billings 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," Vasquez said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."

Tony Vasquez hit a two-run home run off Ed Newson in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off J.P. Doe in the 5th, hit a three-run home run off Guillermo Villareal in the 6th, flied out in the 8th and hit a solo-shot off Carlos Montelongo in the 9th.

This year, Vasquez has hit 5 home runs and posted a .385 batting average.
