 | Wednesday, September 4th, 2019: Davis Batters Newark for 5 Hits
If just anyone could go out and hit a baseball, big dollar contracts wouldn't exist. But they can't, so the good hitters get the big bucks. At Ballpark of Mokuleia Carl Davis showed how it's done as he went 5 for 5 against the Newark Proletarians. However this great day with the bat didn't pay off in a victory. The Mokuleia Toucans fell 14-5.
The manager for the Proletarians told the SION sportswriters, "We made some bad pitches and he took advantage of it. That's the game of baseball. Don't make mistakes and you win a lot more ballgames. Luckily we came away with a win today. Davis just didn't get enough help."
If Davis keeps hitting like this, he could be headed for a big pay raise.
C. Davis singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI double in the 5th, singled in the 7th and doubled in the 9th.
In 2019, Davis is hitting .263 with 0 home runs and 53 RBIs in 124 games played. He also boasts an OBP of .328 with 45 walks and 60 runs scored.
