5-Hit Game for Eberle Sunday, August 20th , 2051 Even as a kid, Joe Eberle said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Turtles Field today, Eberle showed how well he learned that lesson. The 22-year-old second baseman had 5 hits in 5 at-bats for the San Antonio Turtles, helping his team knock off the Wilmington Eagles by a score of 16-8. "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 today." Joe Eberle singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 8th and walked in a run in the 8th. This season Eberle has hit 1 home run and posted a .514 batting average. View Boxscore |
