McBride Batters Washington (DSL) Big Time
Thursday, June 18th , 2026
Detroit (DSL) shortstop Doug McBride could do no wrong in his team's 15-3 win over the Nationals, as he collected 5 hits.
"Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Nationals skipper Kevin Greenstein said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts."
McBride 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."
Doug McBride flied out in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, hit a three-run triple in the 5th, hit an RBI double in the 6th, singled in the 8th and hit an RBI double in the 8th.
This year, McBride is batting .556 with 2 home runs.
