Super Swinger -- Todt Slams 5 Hits Sunday, July 14th, 1929 Boston first baseman Phil Todt could do no wrong in today's 15-5 win over the Browns as he collected 5 hits. "Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Browns skipper said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts." Todt agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game. "Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready." Phil Todt hit a two-run double in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 5th, singled in the 8th and hit an RBI single in the 9th. Thus far this year Todt has hit .271 with 8 home runs and 52 RBIs. View Boxscore View Game Log |
