Astoria's Lara Goes Ballistic with 5 Hits
Astoria Argonauts center fielder Juan Lara had a day to remember at Cobb Field today, ripping apart the Billings Mustangs and sparking the Argonauts to a 7-2 victory.

Lara wrote his name in the record books with a 5-hit barrage, finishing his special day 5-for-6.

"I'm usually a first ball hitter," Lara told BNN reporters in the postgame press conference. "I think pitchers think batters are going to let the first one go by. I never do. I've always found that it's better to pull the trigger early in the count. Pitchers get real nasty when they get ahead of you, so I try to avoid it."

Juan Lara singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, flied out in the 6th, hit a solo-shot off Gilbert Beckmann in the 8th and doubled in the 9th.

In the current season, Lara has put up a .349 batting average with 94 hits, 7 home runs, 38 RBI and scored 49 runs.
