"It's a shame that we lost the game," he said later. "It's really hard to enjoy what I did today. You would think 5 hits would do it."

David Baruch singled in the 1st, flied out in the 3rd, flied out in the 5th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th, hit an RBI single in the 8th and singled in the 9th.
