 | Friday, September 29th, 2017: Walker Goes 5-6
It's not something you read in the sports pages everyday -- a 5-for-6 day. It may only come around once in a career -- a lot of players never have one -- but Neil Walker got one today. He scattered hits all over PNC Park to pace Pittsburgh to a 17-9 victory over Colorado.
The Colorado skipper told reporters in the press room, "Tip your hat to him. He hit some good pitches. According to the scouting report, Walker hit several that he is not supposed to hit."
N. Walker hit an RBI triple in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 6th, flied out in the 8th and hit a GRAND SLAM off D. Porres in the 9th.
So far in 2017 Walker has hit .323 with 20 home runs and 97 RBIs. He has played in 135 games and scored 94 times.
