| Breaking News |  | Saturday, August 22nd, 2015: Larsen Strokes 5 Hits
During a player's career, there are days that stand out and this day was definitely special! Andy Larsen went 5 for 5 against the Birmingham Barons at Hank Aaron Stadium and the Bay Bears picked up a 8-7 victory.
He exclaimed, "What a day! We win and I get 5 hits! Couldn't be better!" The delighted catcher was really enjoying the happiness of the moment in the press room.
"He was patient up there today," the Mobile skipper told the press after the game. "I like the way he waited for his pitch and wasn't overly agressive. Larsen has a tendency to go after some bad balls sometimes."
A. Larsen hit an RBI double in the 2nd, doubled in the 4th, doubled in the 7th, hit an RBI single in the 8th and hit a solo-shot off J. Rivera in the 10th.
This season Larsen is swinging the bat at a .374 rate with 73 hits in 195 at-bats. To date he has hit 4 home runs, scored 34 runs and driven in 37.

"He was kind of teasing them with his offspeed stuff and his fastball was moving everywhere," the Huntsville skipper said after Ron Feder shut out the Birmingham Barons 5-0 on a 5-hit masterpiece.
Feder registered 6 strikeouts and issued 2 walks in a gem of a performance.
"We just didn't swing the bats very well... or he just pitched good, whichever way you want to look at it," said the Birmingham manager after the defeat.
In 2015 Feder has a 11-8 record with a 3.36 ERA.
