Castaneda Torches Gothams for 6 Hits
There aren't many who could be pro ballplayers and there are even fewer who could put up 6 hits in a day.

Julio Castaneda is one of those rare few, as he went 6-for-6 against the New York Gothams at Hennepin County Stadium. The monster effort from the 26-year-old catcher helped the Minneapolis Millers get the win, 18-5.

"We made some bad pitches and he took advantage of it," said Gothams manager Charlie Foley. "That's the game, though. Don't make mistakes and you'll win ballgames. Make mistakes and, well, you saw what happened today."

Julio Castaneda hit a three-run home run off Joe Nelson in the 1st, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, singled in the 6th, hit a two-run double in the 7th and singled in the 8th.

Thus far this season in 40 games, Castaneda is batting .248 with 3 home runs, 21 RBIs and 20 runs scored. He has 35 hits in 141 at-bats.
