Adams Belts Bunch of Base Hits
It wasn't just another day at the ballpark for Tom Adams. Adams went on a tear and cracked hit after hit off Newark pitchers. When the dust settled on the diamond at Foundry Field, he had a 5-for-6 line and a day he will long remember. And the Buffalo Bluebirds had a win, 19-5, over the Grays.

"Yeah, it'll be something nice to tell the grandkids, but it won't get me a hit tomorrow," he joked in the postgame interview.

Tom Adams singled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, walked in the 4th, flied out in the 5th, singled in the 8th and hit a two-run triple in the 9th.

On the season, Adams is batting .330 with no home runs and 18 RBIs. He has played in 27 games.
