Silvestre Slams 5 Hits for Marysville
Andres Silvestre knows as well as anyone that in baseball, the biggest contracts go to the biggest hitters. At Mitts Fieldhouse, he made his case to be considered among that group.

The 22-year-old third baseman hammered 5 hits in 5 chances, though the remarkable effort came even as his Marysville Monarchs fell, 8-7, to the Black Mountain Mountaineers.

"We made some bad pitches and he took advantage of it," Mountaineers manager Mario Encarnación told BNN sportswriters after the game. "Thankfully, we were able to do enough elsewhere that Silvestre wasn't the difference."

Andres Silvestre singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit a two-run single in the 7th and doubled in the 9th.


So far on the season, Silvestre is hitting .256 with 11 home runs, 41 RBIs and 45 runs scored. He has 105 hits and played in 107 games.
