5-for-5 Day for Vidro
Jose Vidro exploded for a barrage of base hits today at Tiger Stadium.

The Kansas City second baseman had a field day in the 10-2 triumph over the Detroit Stars, finishing 5-for-5.

"My hitting philosophy is simple," he said. "I focus on just seeing the ball and I try to get a good pitch."

Vidro must have focused at least 5 times and apparently got some good pitches, too, leading to one of his best days ever with the bat. Jose Vidro doubled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, hit a two-run double in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 6th and doubled in the 8th.

A look at his current stats shows Vidro with a .299 average, 6 home runs, 30 RBIs and 18 runs scored. He has played in 30 games.
