Rogers Slams 5 Hits for Indianapolis
Al Rogers put on a hitting clinic as the Indianapolis Hoosiers dumped the Tulsa Roughnecks, 14-8, at Sioux City Grounds.

The Indianapolis shortstop made Tulsa defenders earn their pay, lashing Tulsa pitching for 5 hits in 5 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it."

"Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Rogers said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch."

Al Rogers doubled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th and singled in the 8th.

So far this season, Rogers has gotten 63 hits in 204 at-bats for a .309 batting average with 3 home runs. His stats include 30 RBIs and 32 runs scored. He has played in 58 games.
