 | Monday, May 26th, 1969: Aaron Torches Pirates for 5 Hits Players get multi-hit games all the time. But a 5-hit game only comes around once in a blue moon. It happened at County Stadium II when Hank Aaron of Milwaukee scattered 5 hits all over the ballpark against the Pittsburgh Pirates. He walloped 5 hits in 5 at-bats in his career-day performance to help the Brewers get by the Pirates 13-7. In a talkative and jovial mood after the game, the center fielder of the Brewers exclaimed, "Whoa, my swing was really, really there today. I made some good, sweet-spot contact and when that happens... good things happen... like 5-5. I could get used to a lot of days like this one." H. Aaron singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit an RBI double in the 6th and hit a two-run home run off M. Montejo in the 7th. Thus far this season in 45 games Aaron is batting .267 with 9 home runs, 32 RBIs and 24 runs scored. He has 48 hits in 180 at-bats. |
