Pike Sensational, 5-for-5 Wednesday, September 5th , 2063 Spokane first baseman Ian Pike could do no wrong in his team's 16-7 win over the Shamrocks, as he collected 5 hits. "Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Shamrocks skipper Pedro Mercado said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts." Pike agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game. "Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready." Ian Pike singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, was hit by a pitch in the 6th, singled in the 8th, singled in the 10th and walked in the 12th. To date Pike has chalked up a .414 average with no home runs, driven in 14 runs and scored 12 times. View Boxscore View Game Log |
