Ferris Slams 5 Hits for Bridgewater
Bridgewater Buccaneers catcher Justin Ferris had a day to remember at Gaels Park, ripping apart the Pembroke Porch Geese and sparking the 16-6 Buccaneers win.

Ferris 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," Ferris 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."

Justin Ferris doubled in the 3rd, hit a three-run home run off Doug Burns in the 4th, hit a two-run single in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Jose Reyes in the 6th and hit an RBI double in the 8th.

At the moment, Ferris is hitting .273 with 2 home runs and 11 RBIs. He has played in 25 games and scored 8 times.
