Franco Goes 5-for-5
Houston shortstop Julio Franco could do no wrong in today's 8-0 win over the Reds as he collected 5 hits.

"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Reds skipper Jonathan Powles said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."

Franco agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.

"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."

Julio Franco singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th.

This season in 106 games Franco is batting .296 with 6 home runs, 38 RBIs and has scored 69 times.
