Great Day for Bouman -- 5 Hits
Alfred Bouman was smoking all game at the plate, but couldn't finish his day with a victory cigar.

After the 28-year-old The Netherlands catcher tallied 5 hits in 6 at-bats, he was forced to watch as his club dropped the 8-7 decision to the England.

"That was no fun," Bouman said to reporters after the game. "You hate to lose any game but it's even worse somehow to feel like you did enough to win."

Alfred Bouman doubled in the 2nd, walked in a run in the 3rd, grounded out in the 6th, hit a two-run single in the 7th, singled in the 9th, singled in the 11th, walked in the 13th and hit a two-run home run off Jay Bell in the 15th.
