Red-Hot Byrd Scorches Athletics
Monday, October 9th , 2056
Some days you can't win for losing. Just ask Dan Byrd -- he was the King of Swing against the Athletics, but his Warhawks were beaten 4-3 anyway.

The Illinois catcher had 5 chances against the New Jersey and delivered 5 hits in a sensational game.

"Unbelievable feeling," he told the press. "It felt great to be hitting like that, but a downer when you look at the scoreboard. 5-for-5 does wonders for your confidence, but it's a shame we couldn't win, too."

Dan Byrd doubled in the 1st, singled in the 4th, doubled in the 6th, walked in the 8th, singled in the 10th, walked in the 13th and singled in the 16th.

So far in 2056 Byrd is batting .292 with 9 home runs, 59 RBIs and 85 runs scored. He has 147 hits in 504 at-bats and a .377 OBP.
