Baker 5-for-5 Against Lynchburg
Thursday, April 9th , 2026
Shawn Baker told the press after his 5-hit day, "Every batter wants to have a quality at-bat every time he steps up to the plate. He wants to hit the ball hard."
Well, that's just what Baker of the Frederick Keys did against the Lynchburg Hillcats. He went to the plate 5 times and 5 times he delivered base hits, but his club still suffered a defeat, 8-4.
"Not much I can say," offered Baker in the postgame press conference. "I got a bunch of hits, but it would have been much better to get a win. Can I trade 5 hits for the win?"
Shawn Baker singled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, doubled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
