| Breaking News |  | Tuesday, July 5th, 2011: Lindsey Rips Winnipeg for 5 Hits
Kenneth Lindsey was a tough out and went 5 for 5 against Winnipeg in a fine hitting display. But the Whips still managed to beat the Lafayette 8-7.
"I got my pitches and I connected. They all found the right holes on the diamond. Some days you hit shots and they're right at somebody...and some days they fall in." Lindsey also added, "And some days you lose, no matter how well you play. 5 hits in a game ought to win it."
Don't know if it is any consolation to him, but he will get his name put in the record books.
K. Lindsey hit a two-run double in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, doubled in the 6th and singled in the 9th.
For 2011 Lindsey is batting .353 with 2 home runs, 31 RBIs and 18 runs scored.
