5-Hit Barrage by Fountain
Kale Fountain was at the head of a Lakeland Catfish hit parade at Ballpark of St. Lucie. The 20-year-old went to the plate 6 times and came away with 5 hits, but it was the St. Lucie Sand Gnats that marched off with the 13-12 win.

"We didn't have it today," griped Catfish skipper following the game. "Kale did fine, but as a team, we didn't do it with the bats and we didn't do it pitching."

Fountain did more than fine, dominating the Sand Gnats at the plate during his record-making 5-for-6 performance.

"Each time I went to the plate, I was thinking about hitting the ball hard somewhere," the sweet-swinging third baseman told reporters. "When I focus on that, I usually have quality at-bats."

Kale Fountain hit a two-run single in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, grounded out in the 4th, singled in the 6th, singled in the 8th and singled in the 9th.

For the year, Fountain has hit at a .263 clip with 30 RBIs, 6 home runs and 26 runs scored.
