Pendleton 5-for-5 Against Houston
No matter what the Houston Astros threw at him, Jim Pendleton hit it. He easily handled Astros pitching, going 5 for 5 and helping the Marlins triumph, 9-7, at Minute Maid Park.

"The way I was swinging, I think I could have closed my eyes and hit the ball," he told BNN reporters in the postgame interview.

Told of Pendleton's quip, Astros skipper Claybor Finley said he "would take him up on that next time."

Jim Pendleton singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit a two-run home run off Robert Carson in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off Jeff Reardon in the 9th.

For the year, Pendleton is hitting .286 with 4 home runs. His stats include 12 RBI and 11 runs scored.
