5 hits in 5 at-bats. It doesn't happen every day, and when it does, it's exciting. Today Mortimer Putman of the Macon Peaches had a sensational 5-5 game against Montgomery at Luther Williams Field. He rifled base hits all over the ballpark in his team's 15-4 shellacking of the Rebels.
In the postgame press conference he joked, "Heck, that's a week's worth of hitting for me and I did it all in one day. I guess I can take the rest of the week off...Right, skipper?"
M. Putman walked in the 1st, hit a two-run single in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, walked in the 7th, doubled in the 8th and hit a two-run home run off M. Cash in the 9th.
