 | Norman Batters Norfolk for 5 Hits Tuesday, September 4th, 2029: 5 hits in a game has always been a magic number in baseball. Only a handful of players will do that. Get 5 hits in a game and you get your moment of glory... your 5 minutes of fame... you get your name in the record book. In the Blue Sox 11-4 win over Norfolk, Chet Norman was red-hot today, scorching them for hit after hit at Norfolk Grounds. "To hit the ball consistently well, you have to relax. I was relaxed for the first four hits, but I must admit, I got a little tight when I realized I had a chance for a 5-hit game. On the last at-bat, I was ready to swing at anything close." On his big day Norman delivered 5 hits in 6 at-bats. Chet Norman doubled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and flied out in the 8th. So far this year Norman is hitting .331 with 2 home runs. |   |
