Ernie Wilkins did a number on the Bulls in the 8-4 San Diego victory -- and the number was 5. The Captains shortstop banged out 5 hits in 6 at-bats at Independence Field to lead his club past the Kansas City Bulls.

"I felt good in the batter's box," he said. "I had confidence in my swing and knew that it was there and that I could get the job done."

Ernie Wilkins singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and grounded out in the 9th.

In 73 games this season, Wilkins is batting .301 with 93 hits and 4 home runs. He has scored 41 runs and driven in 27.
