SDMB Double A News Article | |  | Saturday, April 20th, 2013: Boettcher Batters Ft. Collins Big Time It was a good day for the Rumrunners at Browns Ballpark as they clipped the Ft. Collins Titanics 7-6. It was tremendous day for Jonathan Boettcher, who went on quite a hitting spree with a 5 for 7 barrage.
The Moose Jaw left fielder told reporters after his big 5-hit performance, "I don't have any buzz words. I'm not 'dialed in' or 'in a zone,' as they say. As far as the hitting goes, I try to keep it simple. I try not to look into it too much. Basically the pitcher throws the ball, I try to pick up the spin, then try to hit it. Today I picked up the spin very well."
J. Boettcher singled in the 1st, flied out in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 6th, flied out in the 8th, singled in the 10th, walked in the 12th and hit a solo-shot off J. Wortman in the 14th.
This season Boettcher is swinging the bat at a .325 rate with 27 hits in 83 at-bats. To date he has hit 2 home runs, scored 16 runs and driven in 13. | |
