| Breaking News |  | Tuesday, April 30th, 2030: Odaka Torches Angels for 5 Hits
Next time the Angels might think twice about pitching to Soshu Odaka. Today at Fenway Park the Boston third baseman really burned Anaheim pitching, going 5-for-6 in the Red Sox 11-3 triumph.
"When he's seeing the ball well," his skipper told reporters, "he can probably stroke a base hit blindfolded."
S. Odaka hit an RBI single in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off D. Adams in the 5th, singled in the 7th and grounded out in the 9th.
So far this season, Odaka has recorded a .344 batting average with 32 hits, 3 home runs, 19 RBIs, 16 runs scored and a .398 OBP. |

J. Willis singled in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 5th, singled in the 6th and hit an RBI single in the 8th.
