Monday, April 13th , 2015

"Unbelievable feeling," he told the press. "It felt good. 5-for-5 isn't bad for your batting average either."
Mike Thornton hit an RBI single in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Jim Unknown in the 4th, was hit by a pitch in the 6th, singled in the 8th and singled in the 9th.
This year, Thornton has hit at a .452 clip with 14 hits, 2 home runs, 9 RBIs and 7 runs scored.
