Sabato 5-for-5 Against Lookouts: Aaron Sabato put on a hitting clinic today as the Birmingham Barons dumped the Chattanooga Lookouts 8-7 at AT&T Field.
The Birmingham first baseman made Chattanooga defenders earn their pay, lashing Chattanooga pitching for 5 hits in 5 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it."
"Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Sabato said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."
Aaron Sabato hit a solo-shot off Josh Sharkey in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Josh Sharkey in the 4th, singled in the 6th, singled in the 8th, walked in the 10th, walked in the 12th and hit a three-run home run off Kent Decker in the 13th.
