India Gets 5 Hits Tuesday, May 5th , 2026 A jubilant Jonathan India joined the postgame press conference at Citizens Bank Park to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Philadelphia Phalanx pitching staff he had just vanquished. "It may not have looked like it," said the Denver Bears second baseman, "but I saw some awful good pitches today. If luck hadn't been on my side it might have turned out a lot different." That would not have been the conclusion of anyone who saw his dominant 5-for-7 hitting performance, which led to the 21-3 Bears win. "He made it look easy," said Stephen Esterhazy, manager of the Phalanx. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously." Jonathan India struck out in the 1st, hit a two-run double in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, struck out in the 5th, singled in the 7th, hit an RBI single in the 8th and hit an RBI double in the 9th. This year, India is batting .292 with 33 hits and 1 home run. He has scored 14 times and has batted in 17 runs. View Boxscore View Game Log |
