 | Monday, September 12th, 2016: 5-Hit Game for *Slobberknocker! It was a big day with the bat for Herman *Slobberknocker of the Dol Guldur Dragons at Dol Guldur Stadium as he bashed out hit after hit after hit to defeat Dead Marshes 10-1. To the press after the ballgame he modestly said, "Guys, it's just one game in a long season. I hit it hard and found some holes today -- Bingo! -- 5 hits in 5 tries! But my hits are not the big thing in the game. The victory is the important thing. That's the story." At the end of the game *Slobberknocker had collected 5 hits in 5 at-bats and a small mention in the record book. He was happy. He had a big day with the bat. And the Dragons had won. The beat writers were happy, too. They had their big story -- they could write about his big day with the bat. H. *Slobberknocker tripled in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off L. Elrondir in the 4th, singled in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off P. Zamora in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th. *Slobberknocker has a .305 average and a .385 on-base percentage for the year. He has picked up 159 hits, 17 home runs and driven in 76 runs. |
