MLB Short Season A 04-02-2022 Home | | Breaking News | | Friday, April 1st, 2022: Simmons Sensational, 5-6 It was a sensational day at the plate for Willie Simmons as he led the charge to a 14-7 win over the Sea Hawks.
The Madison first baseman was pure misery for the Southgate pitching staff. He left them shellshocked with 5 hits in 6 at-bats in an explosive display of hitting.
The manager for the Sea Hawks told SION reporters after the game, "Simmons put the ball into play. He really hit it hard. When you do that, you've got a pretty good chance to do some damage. And that's what happened. I feel like we threw some pretty good pitches, but he just put some good swings on the ball."
W. Simmons singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, flied out in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off A. Blanding in the 8th.
| | Friday, April 1st, 2022: Olson 5-6 for Ashville Players get multi-hit games all the time. But a 5-hit game only comes around once in a blue moon. It happened at Windsurfers Ballpark when Anderson Olson of Ashville scattered 5 hits all over the ballpark against the Lake Heritage Reindeers.
He was down and a little subdued with mixed feelings in the postgame interview. "It was a good day for me, but not a good day for the Windsurfers. The bottom line in baseball is to win. We didn't do it today," he told the press after the game.
He walloped 5 hits in 6 at-bats in his career day performance, but it was the Reindeers, who won the ballgame 8-7.
However, the left fielder of the Windsurfers did have this to say: "My swing was really, really there today. I made some good, solid contact and when that happens...good things happen. Sure, 5-6 and losing is better than going 0-5 and losing. I'll take 2-4 and a win and be overjoyed. I ain't greedy."
A. Olson flied out in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th, singled in the 9th and singled in the 10th.
