 | Sunday, April 3rd, 1988: Booker Strokes 5 Hits
It doesn't happen very often, but it happened for Rod Booker -- a 5-hit day. He went on a rampage at Ballpark of Toledo and paced the Dynamos to a 8-5 win over the North Terre Haute Shockwave.
After his dynamite batting performance the Toledo second baseman told the press, "I just tried to get myself in a good count and have a good at-bat. That's all I can control." His philosophy paid some great dividends today. He slammed 5 hits in 6 tries and put his name in the record book.
R. Booker singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, singled in the 8th, flied out in the 10th and hit a GRAND SLAM off J. Unknown in the 11th.
