Meeker 5-for-6 Against Gulls
Waco catcher Clifton Meeker could do no wrong in his team's 24-5 win over the Gulls, as he collected 5 hits.

"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Gulls skipper said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."

Meeker 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."

Clifton Meeker walked in the 1st, hit an RBI double in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, flied out in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit an RBI triple in the 7th and doubled in the 8th.

For the year, Meeker is batting .311 with no home runs, 17 RBIs and 18 runs scored.
