5-Hit Barrage by Watkins
There aren't many who could be pro ballplayers and there are even fewer who could put up 5 hits in a day.

Nick Watkins is one of those rare few, as he went 5-for-6 against the Ft. Wayne Earthquakes at Ballpark of San Bernardino. The monster effort from the 19-year-old catcher helped the San Bernardino Flight get the win, 16-10.

"We made some bad pitches and he took advantage of it," said Earthquakes manager Du-sung Moon. "That's the game, though. Don't make mistakes and you'll win ballgames. Make mistakes and, well, you saw what happened today."

Nick Watkins singled in the 1st, doubled in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Tome Sangwine in the 4th, singled in the 5th, hit an RBI double in the 6th and struck out in the 8th.
