Big Day with Bat: Edelman 5-for-5 Tuesday, July 18th , 2051 There aren't many who could be pro ballplayers and there are even fewer who could put up 5 hits in a day. Jeff Edelman is one of those rare few, as he went 5-for-5 against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park today. The monster effort from the 25-year-old left fielder helped the San Francisco Giants take the win, 7-2. "We made some bad pitches and he took advantage of it," said Tigers manager Hector Olvera. "That's the game, though. Don't make mistakes and you'll win ballgames. Make mistakes and, well, you saw what happened today." Jeff Edelman singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 8th. Edelman is hitting .340 this year with 6 home runs, 27 RBIs and 27 runs scored. He has 64 hits in 188 at-bats, 11 walks and a .393 on-base percentage. Edelman has played in 47 games. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |
