Red-Hot Sellars Scorches Cherries
Friday, May 14th , 2060
It's not something you read about in the sports pages every day -- a 5-for-6 day. For many, it might come around only once in a career -- and for Rick Sellars, it came around today.

The 28-year-old third baseman scattered hits all over Salem Stadium to pace the Flagstaff Venom to a 9-5 victory over the Salem Cherries.

Salem skipper told reporters in the press room that "Sellars deserves a hat-tip."

"He hit some good pitches against us," he said. "In fact, according to our scouting reports, Sellars hit several that he is not supposed to be able to hit."

Rick Sellars hit a solo-shot off Jay McMillan in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 7th, hit an RBI single in the 8th, tripled in the 11th and flied out in the 11th.

This year Sellars has socked 57 hits in 154 at-bats for a .370 average with 15 home runs. He is getting on base at a .433 pace and his totals also include 41 RBIs and 32 runs scored.
