Cantwell Tags Patriots for 5 Hits
5 hits in a game is a rare thing, but Reading's Hugh Cantwell made it happen against the Patriots. Everything came together at the plate for the 23-year-old first baseman as he collected 5 hits in 6 at-bats -- and helped the Red Caps triumph, 15-8, at Railmen's Yard.

"I'm just out there to try and help the team win," Cantwell said after the game, "I had some real good at-bats. I made good, solid contact and luckily no one caught 'em."

Hugh Cantwell doubled in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, flied out in the 4th, singled in the 6th, doubled in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.

In 59 games this season, Cantwell is batting .371 with 98 hits and 6 home runs. He has scored 59 runs and driven in 41.
