 | Medina Batters Seattle for 5 Hits Monday, April 21st , 2042 Even as a kid, Rafael Medina said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Pilots Park, Medina showed how well he learned that lesson. The 27-year-old left fielder had 5 hits in 5 at-bats for the Atlanta Peaches, helping his team knock off the Seattle Pilots by a score of 6-4. "They always said, just keep your eye on the ball, don't overswing, make contact and you never know what will happen," he said. "That's all I did." Rafael Medina singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th. Medina is hitting .282 for the season with 1 home run, 5 RBIs and 13 runs scored. He has 22 hits in 78 at-bats and played in 19 games. View Boxscore View Game Log |   |
