Hit Parade: Pineda Pops 5 Hits
Thursday, July 23rd , 2026
Borrego Springs second baseman Carlos Pineda could do no wrong in his team's 18-10 win over the Mounties, as he collected 5 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Mounties skipper Johnny Hoffman said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
Pineda agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.
"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."
Carlos Pineda hit an RBI double in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, walked in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, singled in the 6th, flied out in the 7th and doubled in the 9th.
Currently Pineda is batting .326 with 14 home runs, 41 RBIs and 39 runs scored.
