Fonseca Sizzles -- Smokes Cougars for 5 Hits Saturday, May 31st , 2064 Boca Raton Fighting Iguanas right fielder Fernando Fonseca had a day to remember at The Back Draft, ripping apart the Prince George Cougars and sparking the 25-13 Fighting Iguanas win. Fonseca wrote his name in the record books with a 5-hit barrage, finishing his special day 5-for-5. "I'm usually a first ball hitter," Fonseca 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." Fernando Fonseca doubled in the 1st, doubled in the 3rd, walked in the 4th, walked in a run in the 5th, singled in the 6th, singled in the 7th, walked in the 8th and singled in the 9th. This year, Fonseca is batting .287 with 43 hits and 4 home runs. He has scored 37 times and has batted in 24 runs. View Boxscore View Game Log |
