Marion on Fire, 6-for-6 Against China
It wasn't just another day at the ballpark for Émile Marion. Marion went on a tear and cracked hit after hit off China pitchers. When the dust settled on the diamond at Caracas Grounds, he had a 6-for-6 line and a day he will long remember. And the France had a win, 12-4, over the China.

"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.

Émile Marion hit an RBI single in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
