 | Thursday, April 3rd, 2003: Great Stroke! Furcal Gets 6 Hits!
6 hits in a game doesn't happen every day. Atlanta's Rafael Furcal had a very special day against the Expos when everything came together for him and he did just that -- collected 6 hits in 6 at-bats -- and led the Atlanta Braves to a 13-4 win at Turner Field.
"I'm just out there to try and help the team win," Furcal said after the game, "I had some real good at-bats today. I made good, solid contact and luckily no one caught 'em."
R. Furcal doubled in the 1st, hit a two-run double in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, hit a three-run home run off B. Reames in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.
