Pressley Smacks 5 Hits for Ligers Monday, April 14th , 2042 Blanchard HS catcher Mitch Pressley could do no wrong in his team's 23-1 win over the Knights, as he collected 5 hits. "Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Knights skipper Thomas Peña said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts." Pressley agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game. "Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready." Mitch Pressley flied out in the 1st, hit an RBI double in the 3rd, hit a two-run triple in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and grounded out in the 8th. This season, Pressley has posted a batting average of .333 with 44 hits in 132 at-bats, 6 home runs and 26 RBIs. He has also scored 21 runs, walked 16 times and compiled a .403 OBP. View Boxscore |
