Great Stroke: Yi Gets 5 Hits: Ingraham second baseman Seung-yeop Yi could do no wrong in today's 13-6 win over the Seahawks as he collected 5 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Seahawks skipper Ervin Santana said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
Yi agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.
"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."
Seung-yeop Yi hit a two-run home run off Michael Kuehl in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, doubled in the 6th, hit an RBI double in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.
This season Yi has hit at a .276 clip and produced 27 runs batted in, 3 home runs and 30 runs.
