Lorang Sensational, 5-for-5
Washington third baseman Tom Lorang could do no wrong in his team's 9-1 win over the Suns, as he collected 5 hits.

"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Suns skipper Bill Morrill said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."

Lorang agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.

"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."

Tom Lorang singled in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Doc Carver in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, doubled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.

This year, Lorang is batting .361 with 39 hits and 8 home runs. He has scored 25 times and has batted in 29 runs.
