Dudley Gets 5 Hits
It doesn't happen very often, but it did for Will Dudley -- a 5-hit effort. He went on a rampage at Cobb Field and paced the 11-6 Firebirds win over the Billings Mustangs.

After his dynamite batting performance, the Albany third baseman told reporters that he "just tried to get in a good count and have a good at-bat. That's all I can control."

His philosophy paid dividends today. He slammed 5 hits in 6 tries and put his name in the record book. Will Dudley flied out in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, singled in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off Jeremy Hillman in the 9th.

Thus far this season in 16 games, Dudley is batting .295 with 2 home runs, 10 RBIs and 15 runs scored. He has 18 hits in 61 at-bats.
