5-for-6 Day for Fenske
Thursday, February 17th, 1972
A jubilant Al Fenske joined the postgame press conference at Mud Cats Ballpark today to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Silver Spring HS Razor Sharks pitching staff he had just vanquished.

"It may not have looked like it," said the Westfield HS Fighting Knights right fielder, "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-6 hitting performance, which led the Fighting Knights to a 11-3 win.

"He made it look easy," said , manager of the Razor Sharks. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously."

Al Fenske singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, flied out in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit a two-run home run off Mike Rump in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.
