Oliveros Tags Shamrocks for 5 Hits
Monday, December 27th , 2021
It doesn't happen very often, but it did for Billy Oliveros -- a 5-hit day. He went on a rampage and sparkled on the diamond at Shamrocks Stadium, but the performance lost a little luster when the Herons were downed, 5-4, by the (NYN) Vallejo Shamrocks.
After his glittering performance, the (TB) Ana Maria Island right fielder told the press that he "just tried to get myself in a good count and have a good at-bat."
His batting theory paid dividends today as he slammed 5 hits in 5 tries and put his name in the record book.
"I just wish we had added a win in the record book, too," Oliveros said.
Billy Oliveros doubled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Jacob Hodge in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
This season, Oliveros has hit at a .289 clip with 5 RBIs, 3 home runs and 6 runs scored. He has played in 9 games.
