5-for-5 Game for Herrera Friday, June 18th , 2060
5 times is the charm -- at least for Jaime Herrera.
The MSL Oakland Oaks catcher tore up the MSL St. Louis Coeur to the tune of 5 hits in 5 at-bats at MSL Oakland Ballpark. The offensive onslaught from Herrera powered the 19-2 Oaks win.
"Herrera was a tough out," MSL St. Louis manager Harunobu Matsushita said to the press in the postgame interview. "He hit some very good pitches with that quick bat of his. Not an easy out, that's for sure."
Jaime Herrera hit a two-run home run off Luis Rea in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Luis Rea in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Arturo Alfonzo in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Juan Sánchez in the 7th.
Thus far this year, Herrera has hit .321 with 5 home runs and 14 RBIs.
