MacDonald Smacks 5 Hits for Firebirds
The Atlanta (GCL) Firebirds stopped the New York A2 (GCL) Yankees2 by a score of 14-1 at Champion Stadium today, with the lion's share of the credit going to second baseman Jonathan MacDonald. The 24-year-old had a career day, collecting 5 hits.

"Every batter wants to have a quality at-bat every time he steps up to the plate," MacDonald said later. "He wants to hit the ball hard."

MacDonald did just that in his 5 at-bats, much to the chagrin of the Yankees2.

"Not much that I can say," offered New York A2 (GCL) manager Jose Flores. "He just hammered the heck out of us."

Jonathan MacDonald hit an RBI single in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Bob Wolfe in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Rob Hayes in the 5th and singled in the 7th.
