 | Hunt Goes 5-for-7 Against Toronto Sunday, October 8th , 1916 George Hunt put on a hitting clinic as the New York Gothams dumped the Toronto Beavers, 1-0, at Bigsby Oval II. The New York shortstop made Toronto defenders earn their pay, lashing Toronto pitching for 5 hits in 7 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," Hunt said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch." George Hunt grounded out in the 1st, singled in the 4th, walked in the 6th, singled in the 8th, doubled in the 11th, flied out in the 13th, singled in the 15th and singled in the 18th. In this current campaign Hunt is hitting at a .257 clip with 2 home runs and 49 RBIs. View Boxscore |   |
