Mota Bashes 5 Base Hits
Even as a kid, Manny Mota said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Wrigley Field today, Mota showed how well he learned that lesson.

The 30-year-old left fielder had 5 hits in 6 at-bats for the Birmingham Black Barons, helping his team knock off the Chicago Federals by a score of 11-9.

"They always said, just keep your eye on the ball, don't overswing, make contact and you never know what will happen," he said. "That's all I did today."

Manny Mota doubled in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, singled in the 8th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.

So far in 2005 Mota is batting .357 with 3 home runs, 33 RBIs and 57 runs scored. He has 117 hits in 328 at-bats and a .388 OBP.
