Riley Belts Bunch of Base Hits
5 hits in a game is a rare thing, but Atlanta's Don Riley made it happen against the Gothams. Everything came together at the plate for the 33-year-old left fielder as he collected 5 hits in 5 at-bats -- and helped the Copperheads triumph, 7-0, at Gotham Stadium.

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

Don Riley singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, doubled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.

This year, Riley is hitting at a .288 pace with 3 home runs and 28 RBIs. He has played in 64 games and scored 49 times.
