Grey Wolves Merlet Smacks 5 Hits
Tuesday, August 9th , 2061
Robin Merlet put on a hitting clinic as the Vancouver Grey Wolves dumped the Thunder Bay Northern Lions BC, 15-1, at Wolf Den in Vancouver.
The Vancouver shortstop made Thunder Bay defenders earn their pay, lashing Thunder Bay pitching for 5 hits in 5 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it."
"Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Merlet said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."
Robin Merlet singled in the 2nd, doubled in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
For the season, Merlet is hitting at a .306 clip with 3 home runs, 32 RBIs and has scored 30 runs. He has 81 hits, 15 walks and a .340 on-base percentage.
