6 Hits for Stars Henderson
Even as a kid, Tom Henderson said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Republic Park, Henderson showed how well he learned that lesson.

The 31-year-old third baseman had 6 hits in 6 at-bats for the Austin Stars, helping his team knock off the Houston Eagles by a score of 28-6.

"They always said, just keep your eye on the ball, don't overswing, make contact and you never know what will happen," he said. "That's all I did."

Tom Henderson doubled in the 1st, hit a two-run triple in the 1st, hit a two-run double in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, hit a two-run double in the 4th, singled in the 5th and walked in the 7th.

For the year, Henderson is hitting .324 with no home runs. His stats include 35 runs batted in and 34 runs scored.
