5-for-5 Game for Thomas
Tampa Twisters shortstop Andres Thomas had a day to remember at Allyn Field today, ripping apart the Sarasota Eagles and sparking the Twisters to a 8-7 victory.

Thomas wrote his name in the record books with a 5-hit barrage, finishing his special day 5-for-5.

"I'm usually a first ball hitter," Thomas told BNN reporters in the postgame press conference. "I think pitchers think batters are going to let the first one go by. I never do. I've always found that it's better to pull the trigger early in the count. Pitchers get real nasty when they get ahead of you, so I try to avoid it."

Andres Thomas singled in the 2nd, hit a two-run single in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 5th, hit an RBI double in the 7th and singled in the 9th.

In 39 games this season Thomas is batting .276 with 43 hits and 1 home run. He has scored 8 runs and driven in 12.
