Wood on Fire, 5-for-7 Against Texas 2 (DSL)
Thursday, July 3rd , 2025
Pittsburgh (DSL) shortstop Darren Wood could do no wrong in his team's 9-6 win over the Rangers 2, as he collected 5 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Rangers 2 skipper Kieran Mattison said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
Wood agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game.
"Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready."
Darren Wood hit a solo-shot off Trip Pauly in the 1st, flied out in the 3rd, hit a two-run single in the 5th, flied out in the 6th, doubled in the 9th, singled in the 11th, singled in the 14th and walked in the 15th.
