5-Hit Blitz by Chicago's Becker
|
All game long, Chicago's Rich Becker was rattling the walls at Fenway Park and banging out base hits against the Boston Red Sox. When the dust finally settled on the diamond, he had a 5-hit day and the Cubs had a 3-2 victory.
Speaking with reporters after his standout performance, the 26-year-old left fielder said, "Get 5 hits, win a ballgame, it's nice. I could get used to this."
Rich Becker doubled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI double in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
Looking at his present stats, Becker has compiled a .202 batting average in 87 games with a .297 on-base percentage, while hitting 8 home runs and driving in 28 runs.
