 | Quick Blisters Hartford Tuesday, September 27th , 1887 It was almost a perfect day for Rob Quick. The Providence center fielder displayed a hot bat, enjoying an outstanding 5-hit day, but something was missing: The Planters lost to the Hartford Hawks, 3-2. Quick told BNN reporters after the game that luck was "fickle." Providence manager told the beat writers otherwise. "There was no luck today," the skipper said. "He got 5 hits because he has a solid approach to hitting and he put it all together, and we lost because the rest of us didn't put it together so well." Rob Quick flied out in the 1st, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, singled in the 8th, singled in the 10th, flied out in the 12th, flied out in the 14th, singled in the 17th, singled in the 19th, flied out in the 21st, grounded out in the 24th, flied out in the 25th and grounded out in the 27th.
