5-Hit Barrage by Davis
Getting 5 hits in a game has always been memorable feat in baseball. In the Waco's 21-4 win over Fort Worth, second baseman Charlie Davis was red-hot, scorching them for hit after hit at Trailhead Park.

"To hit the ball consistently well, you have to relax," Davis said afterward. "I was relaxed for the first four hits, but I have to admit, I got a little tight when I realized I had a chance for five. On the last at-bat, I was ready to swing at anything close."

Charlie Davis grounded out in the 1st, hit a two-run single in the 2nd, doubled in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, walked in the 7th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.

Thus far this year, Davis is hitting .340 with 2 home runs, 53 RBIs and 87 runs scored.
