5-for-5 Game for de Luna Friday, June 6th , 2053 LetterKenny first baseman Alex de Luna went down swinging at Ballpark of Reno, knocking out 5 hits even as his Irish fell, 5-4. "It was like I was hitting Little League pitching," de Luna said after his 5-for-5 performance against the Reno Copper Kings. "No offense meant to Reno, but it was like I was back in little league again -- I could see the ball that well." After the game, his manager elaborated on the first baseman's improvements, saying de Luna spent the offseason trying to shorten his swing and stay inside the ball. "That's what I'm trying to do," de Luna agreed. "Be quick to the ball and let it travel a little farther so I get a better look at it." Alex de Luna singled in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 9th. For the year, de Luna is batting .333 with 2 home runs, 7 RBIs and 6 runs scored.
