 | Thursday, July 24th, 2025: Meadows on Fire, 5-5 Against Aurora
It was a hits blitz for Dave Meadows at Whammers Ballpark. The Fort Wayne Whammers center fielder tore into Aurora for 5 hits in 5 at-bats to pace Whammers to a 13-9 victory and wrote his name into the baseball record book.
The manager for the Blue Bombers bemoaned his pitching, saying, "We fell behind and weren't locating well. Once you get behind in the count, you have to make real good pitches, rather than good pitches, and we weren't able to do that today." He added, "Not to take anything away from Meadows, but bad location was the story of the ballgame. That's why we lost the game."
D. Meadows singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI double in the 5th, singled in the 7th, hit a three-run home run off M. Jones in the 7th and walked in the 9th.
