 | Sunday, September 6th, 2015: Big Day for Bernier: Swats 5 Hits
It was a sensational day at the plate for William Bernier as he led the charge to a 14-4 win over the Biscuits.
The Tennessee second baseman was pure misery for the Montgomery pitching staff. He left them shellshocked with 5 hits in 5 at-bats in an explosive display of hitting.
The manager for the Biscuits told BNN reporters after the game, "Bernier put the ball into play. He really hit it hard. When you do that, you've got a pretty good chance to do some damage. And that's what happened. I feel like we threw some pretty good pitches, but he just put some good swings on the ball."
W. Bernier hit an RBI double in the 1st, hit a two-run double in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and hit a two-run single in the 8th.
Bernier is batting .293 in 2015 with 8 home runs, 74 RBIs and 76 runs scored. He has 153 hits in 522 at-bats.
