Brooks Goes 5-for-5
The Cleveland Grays stopped the Fort Wayne Cannons by a score of 18-4 at Fort Wayne Grounds, with the lion's share of the credit going to left fielder John Brooks. The 26-year-old had a career day, collecting 5 hits.

"Every batter wants to have a quality at-bat every time he steps up to the plate," Brooks said later. "He wants to hit the ball hard."

Brooks did just that in his 5 at-bats, much to the chagrin of the Cannons.

"Not much that I can say," offered Fort Wayne manager Ray Flanders. "He just hammered the heck out of us."

John Brooks hit an RBI double in the 1st, walked in the 2nd, hit an RBI triple in the 4th, hit a two-run single in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th.

For the season, Brooks is currently batting .365 with no home runs and 51 RBIs. In 64 games he has reached base at a .439 rate and scored 51 runs to date.
