 | Valdes Belts Bunch of Base Hits Sunday, June 25th , 2045 Chiniak shortstop Jose Valdes had a big day at Alouettes Park against the Guadalajara Gooners. The 22-year-old, who is not typically considered a big threat with the bat, went 5-for-6 and led to the 13-4 Alouettes triumph over Guadalajara. "Hey, I'm as surprised as you guys are," Valdes said in his postgame comments, smiling as he scolded the press corps for underestimating him. "Maybe I'm not so bad at the plate after all." Jose Valdes doubled in the 1st, flied out in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 6th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th. So far this year, Valdes is hitting .259 with 5 home runs. |   |
