Pagan Bangs Out 5 Base Hits
Chris Pagan put on a hitting clinic as the Thunder Bay Black Bears dumped the Billings Mustangs, 23-7, at Cobb Field.

The Thunder Bay third baseman made Billings defenders earn their pay, lashing Billings pitching for 5 hits in 7 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," Pagan said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."

Chris Pagan doubled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, struck out in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th, singled in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.

This season, Pagan has posted a batting average of .336 with 95 hits in 283 at-bats, 12 home runs and 50 RBIs. He has also scored 64 runs, walked 20 times and compiled a .390 OBP.
