 | Thursday, April 27th, 1905: New York's Donlin Goes Ballistic with 5 Hits
Mike Donlin exploded for a barrage of base hits today at Polo Grounds III. The New York center fielder had a field day in the 10-3 triumph over the Brooklyn Superbas, finishing with a 5-5 day and a spot in the league record book.
"My hitting philosophy is pretty simple," he said. "I focus on just seeing the ball and I try to get a good pitch."
Well, Donlin must have focused at least 5 times and apparently got some good pitches, too. It was one of his best days ever with the bat.
M. Donlin hit a two-run single in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th.
In 1905 Donlin is currently batting .455 with 1 home run and 12 RBIs. In 12 games he has reached base at a .528 rate and scored 10 runs to date.
