Super Swinger -- Loera Slams 5 Hits Sunday, August 9th , 1914 Some moments become linked with a particular player's career forever. Tito Loera of the Limerick Gandelows had one of those moments when he went 5-for-5 at the plate in his team's 11-1 win over the Dublin Vikings at Gandelows Park. "I won't forget this anytime soon, and I don't expect it to happen too often," the 24-year-old left fielder told reporters in the postgame interview. "I'll be happy to just get a hit or two every day. Enough to hang around the league a while longer. Like 10, maybe 15 more years." Tito Loera singled in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Dolf Horbach in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Dolf Horbach in the 5th, singled in the 7th and doubled in the 8th. Looking at his present stats, Loera has compiled a .311 batting average in 70 games with a .372 on-base percentage, while hitting 6 home runs and driving in 26 runs. View Boxscore View Game Log |
