Big Day for Delgado: Swats 5 Hits Thursday, July 13th , 2023 Keiner Delgado put on a hitting clinic today as the Somerset Patriots dumped the South Bend Cubs 22-2 at TD Bank Ballpark. The Somerset second baseman made South Bend defenders earn their pay, lashing South Bend pitching for 5 hits in 6 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it." "Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Delgado said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch." Keiner Delgado singled in the 1st, struck out in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, walked in the 7th and singled in the 8th. This year Delgado has socked 60 hits in 261 at-bats for a .230 average with 8 home runs. He is getting on base at a .340 pace and his totals also include 25 RBIs and 43 runs scored. |
