5-Hit Blitz by Chicago (N)'s Greenberg
Hank Greenberg of the Cubs was unstoppable in his team's 14-7 victory over the Houston Astros at Wrigley Field. He battered them for 5 hits in 6 at-bats.

"Boy, I was on the mark today," said the Chicago (N) left fielder after the game. "I could see the ball real well. It's a great feeling to do this. And besides, 5-for-6 won't hurt your batting average like 0-for-5 will."

Hank Greenberg doubled in the 1st, hit an RBI double in the 3rd, flied out in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.
