Marquez 5-for-6 Against Sunrays
Alex Marquez was sizzling at the plate. In a game played at Sunrays Field, the Niskayuna second baseman blistered the Ontario Sunrays for 5 hits in 6 at-bats to pace his club to a good 19-10 victory.

"Marquez was too tough to get out," Sunrays skipper Sam Story said in his postgame interview. "No matter what we threw him, he hit it. And he hit some good pitches, too."

Alex Marquez doubled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th, walked in the 6th, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 8th, hit a GRAND SLAM off Jim Unknown in the 8th and flied out in the 9th.

Marquez is swinging at a .370 pace on the year with 9 home runs, 42 RBIs and 30 runs scored. He has played in 38 games.
