Hicks Rips Fountain Hills for 5 Hits
No matter what the Fountain Hills 23ers threw at him, Eric Hicks hit it. He easily handled 23ers pitching, going 5 for 6 and helping the Pines triumph, 13-4, at Fountain Park.

"The way I was swinging, I think I could have closed my eyes and hit the ball," he told BNN reporters in the postgame interview.

Told of Hicks's quip, 23ers skipper Efren Nieman said he "would take him up on that next time."

Eric Hicks singled in the 2nd, doubled in the 4th, hit an RBI double in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, singled in the 8th and struck out in the 9th.

This season, Hicks has delivered 108 hits in 312 at-bats for a .346 average with 17 home runs. He is getting on base at a .378 clip and his totals also include 63 RBIs and 52 runs scored. This year Hicks has played in 85 games.
