5-Hit Barrage by Mauer
It was a big day with the bat for Joe Mauer of the Kansas City Royals at Comerica Park as he bashed out hit after hit after hit to defeat the Detroit Tigers, 10-6.

After the game he said, "Guys, it's just one game in a long season. I hit it hard and found some holes today. 5 hits in 7 tries. But my hits are not the big thing in the game. The victory is the important thing. That's the story."

At the end of the game Mauer had collected 5 hits in 7 at-bats and a small mention in the record book. And the Royals had won. Joe Mauer struck out in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th, flied out in the 9th, singled in the 12th and hit an RBI single in the 12th.

To date, Mauer has collected 30 hits for a .349 average. He has posted 1 home run, scored 16 runs and driven in 11 runs.
