Ward Bangs Out 5 Base Hits
Kevin Ward exploded for a barrage of base hits today at Miami Grounds.

The Miami center fielder had a field day in the 19-3 triumph over the St. Petersburg Crocodiles, finishing 5-for-5.

"My hitting philosophy is simple," he said. "I focus on just seeing the ball and I try to get a good pitch."

Ward must have focused at least 5 times and apparently got some good pitches, too, leading to one of his best days ever with the bat. Kevin Ward hit a two-run single in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Danny Paz in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, walked in the 7th and hit a two-run double in the 8th.

So far this season Ward has put up a .253 batting average with 24 hits, 2 home runs and 21 RBIs.
