Super Swinger -- Robinson Slams 5 Hits Sunday, August 21st , 1977 Alex Robinson put on a hitting clinic as the Chicago Hawks dumped the Seattle Emeralds, 5-3, at Hyde Park Stadium. The Chicago first baseman made Seattle defenders earn their pay, lashing Seattle pitching for 5 hits in 5 at-bats in the game. He told BNN reporters after the game that his strategy was "just hit it where they pitched it." "Too often I try too hard to pull the ball," Robinson said in his postgame press conference. "Today, I just went with the pitch." Alex Robinson singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, doubled in the 6th and singled in the 8th. For the year, Robinson has hit .323 with 40 home runs, 93 RBIs and scored 76 runs. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |
