5-for-6 Day for Morris
Sunday, September 12th , 2049
After a 5-hit effort to lead Atlanta's 18-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Crawfords, center fielder Eric Morris told BNN beat writers it had been "a special day."

"It really doesn't matter whether it's sandlot ball, high school or college, two hits in a game is nice," he said. "Three or four is better, but five or more is out of sight. And to do that at the Explorer League-level is really something special."

The 24-year-old player earned his accolades today at Field of Peaches with a spectacular 5-for-6 game against the Crawfords.

"His swing is getting there," said Peaches skipper , who spoke glowingly of Morris after the game. "We want him to be quick with his swing, short and compact. We want him to be patient and go the other way when he can. Eric did that to perfection today."

Eric Morris doubled in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 5th, doubled in the 7th and doubled in the 8th.

So far on the season Morris is hitting .362 with 4 home runs, 50 RBIs and 42 runs scored. He has 85 hits and played in 74 games.
