Burns Bangs Out 5 Base Hits
After a 5-hit effort to lead Chicago (N)'s 21-8 victory over the Texas Rangers, center fielder Billy Burns told BNN beat writers it had been "a special day."

"It really doesn't matter whether it's sandlot ball, high school or college, two hits in a game is nice," he said. "Three or four is better, but five or more is out of sight. And to do that at the Fellowship of Respect and Trust-level is really something special."

The 23-year-old player earned his accolades at Globe Life Field with a spectacular 5-for-6 game against the Rangers.

"His swing is getting there," said Cubs skipper Matt Ida, who spoke glowingly of Burns after the game. "We want him to be quick with his swing, short and compact. We want him to be patient and go the other way when he can. Billy did that to perfection."

Billy Burns doubled in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Mike Schooler in the 5th, grounded out in the 6th, hit a two-run single in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.

So far this season, Burns is hitting .273 with 1 home run.
