Cork Belts Bunch of Base Hits
It was a sensational day at the plate for Axl Cork as he led the charge to a nifty 10-8 win over the Bisons. The Maine second baseman was pure misery for the Buffalo pitching staff. He left them shell-shocked with 5 hits in 5 at-bats in an explosive display of hitting.

"Cork put the ball into play and he really hit it hard," said Mike Berg, manager for the Bisons, after the game. "When you do that, you've got a good chance to do some damage. And that's what happened. I feel like we threw some good pitches, but he just put some good swings on the ball."

Axl Cork hit a solo-shot off Andy Scott in the 1st, doubled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Georg Howard in the 6th and singled in the 8th.

This season, Cork has hit at a .289 clip and produced 35 runs batted in, 9 home runs and 32 runs.
