Gentry Torches Mighty Mites for 5 Hits
Patrick Gentry put on a hitting clinic as the Santa Ana Black Aces dumped the St. Joseph Mighty Mites, 19-13, at Mighty Mites Park.

The Santa Ana second baseman made St. Joseph defenders earn their pay, lashing St. Joseph 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," Gentry said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."

Patrick Gentry walked in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, flied out in the 7th, singled in the 8th and singled in the 9th.

Gentry is currently hitting at a .383 pace with 2 home runs and 7 RBIs.
