5-for-5 Day for Santos
Franklin Santos was the King of Swing at Lumineers Grounds in the 11-6 Tokyo 99ers win over the Lunar Dark Knights. The Tokyo shortstop stepped into the batter's box 5 times against Lunar and delivered 5 hits. It was a sensational game for him.

"Unbelievable feeling," he told the press. "It felt good. 5-for-5 isn't bad for your batting average either."

Franklin Santos singled in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Tony Sanchez in the 5th, singled in the 6th, singled in the 8th and singled in the 9th.
