6-Hit Blitz by Mathis Saturday, May 9th, 1970 No matter what the Dale City HS Fire Ants threw at him today, Jeff Mathis hit it. He easily handled Fire Ants pitching, going 6 for 6 and helping the Captains to a 14-9 triumph at Gecko Ballpark. "The way I was swinging today, I think I could have closed my eyes and hit the ball," he told BNN reporters in the postgame interview. Told of Mathis's quip, Fire Ants skipper said he "would take him up on that next time." Jeff Mathis doubled in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and doubled in the 9th.
