McFarland Torches Flight for 5 Hits
Getting 5 hits in a game has always been memorable feat in baseball. In the Jacksonville's 19-9 win over San Bernardino, second baseman Bobby McFarland was red-hot, scorching them for hit after hit at Nationals Park.

"To hit the ball consistently well, you have to relax," McFarland said afterward. "I was relaxed for the first four hits, but I have to admit, I got a little tight when I realized I had a chance for five. On the last at-bat, I was ready to swing at anything close."

Bobby McFarland singled in the 2nd, doubled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Ayres Palhao in the 5th, hit a three-run home run off Ayres Palhao in the 6th and grounded out in the 7th.

This season, McFarland has hit at a .497 clip with 57 RBIs, 17 home runs and 46 runs scored. He has played in 37 games.
