Hit Parade: McConnell Pops 5 Hits
It wasn't just another day at the ballpark for Jimmy McConnell. McConnell went on a tear and cracked hit after hit off Austin pitchers. When the dust settled on the diamond at Nationals Park, he had a 5-for-5 line and a day he will long remember. And the Washington Nationals had a win, 11-8, over the Armadillos.

"Yeah, it'll be something nice to tell the grandkids, but it won't get me a hit tomorrow," he joked in the postgame interview.

Jimmy McConnell singled in the 1st, doubled in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and hit an RBI double in the 8th.

McConnell is hitting at a .271 mark this season. His stats show 14 home runs, 41 RBIs and 54 runs scored. He has played 92 games for the Nationals.
