Geter Smacks 5 Hits for Indians
It was a big day with the bat for Merrick Geter of the Cleveland Indians at Progressive Field as he bashed out hit after hit after hit to defeat the Kansas City Royals, 12-4.

After the game he said, "Guys, it's just one game in a long season. I hit it hard and found some holes today. 5 hits in 5 tries. But my hits are not the big thing in the game. The victory is the important thing. That's the story."

At the end of the game Geter had collected 5 hits in 5 at-bats and a small mention in the record book. And the Indians had won. Merrick Geter hit a two-run home run off Jimmy Silveira IV in the 1st, hit a two-run double in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Ryan Bushey in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Ryan Bushey in the 8th.

This year Geter is batting .276 with 19 home runs and 55 RBIs. In 103 games he has scored 52 times.
