 | Monday, July 2nd, 2029: Wilcox Batters Batavia Big Time! It was an almost perfect day. Gateway shortstop Galen Wilcox displayed a hot bat today, enjoying an outstanding 5-hit day. But something was missing -- the Grizzlies failed to win -- they lost to the Batavia Tevatrons 8-6
"Some days, lady luck is on your side, some days it's not," he modestly told SION reporters after the game. His manager told the beat writers otherwise, "His hitting wasn't luck today. It's his solid approach to hitting. Galen is focused, patient and he hits to all fields. The more solid at-bats you put together, the more success you're going to have, and vice versa."
The 24-year-old shortstop for the Grizzlies collected 5 hits in 5 at-bats to get his name in the record book.
G. Wilcox singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and hit a three-run home run off M. Shattuck in the 9th.
Wilcox is batting .271 this season in 65 games with 5 home runs, 27 RBIs and 35 runs scored. He has 72 hits in 266 at-bats. | |
