Santiago on Fire, 7-for-7 Against Pueto Rico
Friday, July 2nd , 2049
Colorado Springs center fielder Justin Santiago could do no wrong in his team's 14-2 win over the Ranas, as he collected 7 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Ranas skipper Alfonso Rivera said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
Santiago agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.
"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."
Justin Santiago singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, hit a two-run double in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.
