Schwarz Bangs Out 5 Base Hits
Some days you can't win for losing. Just ask JJ Schwarz -- he was the King of Swing against the Nationals, but his Powerhouse were beaten 4-3 anyway.

The Ponce first baseman had 5 chances against Caracas and delivered 5 hits in a sensational game.

"Unbelievable feeling," he told the press. "It felt great to be hitting like that, but a downer when you look at the scoreboard. 5-for-5 does wonders for your confidence, but it's a shame we couldn't win, too."

JJ Schwarz singled in the 1st, doubled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI double in the 8th and singled in the 10th.

So far this season Schwarz has gotten 109 hits in 418 at-bats for a .261 batting average with 13 home runs. His stats include 60 RBIs and 61 runs scored. He has played in 115 games.
