Galan Goes 5-for-5 Thursday, May 30th, 1940 It wasn't just another day at the ballpark for Augie Galan today. Galan went on a tear and cracked hit after hit off Cincinnati pitchers. When the dust settled on the diamond at Wrigley Field, he had a 5-for-5 line and a day he will long remember. And the Chicago Cubs had a 11-3 victory over the Reds. "Yeah, it'll be something nice to tell the grandkids, but it won't get me a hit tomorrow," he joked in the postgame interview. Augie Galan singled in the 2nd, doubled in the 4th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, doubled in the 6th and hit an RBI triple in the 7th. Galan is presently hitting at a .275 pace with 4 home runs and 24 RBIs. He has played in 28 games and scored 19 times. View Boxscore View Game Log |
