Bittner Sensational, 5-for-6 Friday, April 3rd, 1970 It was a good day at Gecko Ballpark. The Dale City HS Fire Ants whipped the Louisville HS Vipers 32-8 and right fielder Gary Bittner showed off a hot bat, going 5-for-6 at the plate. "Some days, lady luck is on your side," Bittner told BNN reporters after the game. Fire Ants manager told the beat writers otherwise, calling the 18-year-old "focused and patient." "It's not luck," he said. "He has a solid approach to hitting. Gary hits to all fields. The more solid at-bats you put together, the more success you're going to have." Gary Bittner grounded out in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, walked in the 4th, hit a three-run home run off Julio Ramos in the 5th, singled in the 6th, walked in a run in the 6th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.
