Kingpins Afirst Smacks 5 Hits
Friday, September 11th , 2071
Chicago third baseman Notworth Afirst could do no wrong today, but the Kingpins could.
Afirst collected 5 hits against the State College Swift Steeds , but he couldn't win the game. Chicago fell, 7-6, in extra innings at Count Longardeaux's Strong Badian Dictionary Fo' My Own Words Stadium.
"It's a shame we didn't win," Afirst said later. "It would have been a very special day if that had happened."
"In every one of his at-bats, things were in his favor," Swift Steeds manager said. "We couldn't keep him from getting ahead in the count and once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get better pitches to hit."
Notworth Afirst singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, doubled in the 5th, grounded out in the 7th, singled in the 10th and singled in the 12th.
For the year Afirst is batting .244 with 6 home runs, 45 RBIs and 32 runs scored.
