 | Friday, May 5th, 1967: Alley Slaps 5 Hits
It doesn't happen very often, but it happened for Gene Alley -- a 5-hit day. He went on a rampage at Seals Stadium and paced the Spiders to a 10-7 win over the Boston Federals.
After his dynamite batting performance the San Francisco shortstop 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 7 tries and put his name in the record book.
G. Alley grounded out in the 1st, singled in the 4th, flied out in the 6th, doubled in the 8th, hit an RBI single in the 9th, hit an RBI double in the 11th and hit a two-run home run off C. Hartenstein in the 13th.
This season Alley is hitting at a .417 pace with 1 home run, 5 RBIs and has scored 5 times. |
