Tinsman Cracks 5 Hits
It doesn't happen very often, but it did for Brendan Tinsman -- a 5-hit day. He went on a rampage and sparkled on the diamond at Cougars Ballpark, but the performance lost a little luster when the Nighthawks were downed, 7-6, by the Cooperstown Cougars.

After his glittering performance, the Knoxville catcher told the press that he "just tried to get myself in a good count and have a good at-bat."

His batting theory paid dividends today as he slammed 5 hits in 5 tries and put his name in the record book.

"I just wish we had added a win in the record book, too," Tinsman said.

Brendan Tinsman hit a two-run home run off Brandon Downer in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 8th.
