SeaWolves Nees Smacks 5 Hits Thursday, July 31st , 2025 Erie second baseman Chris Nees could do no wrong in his team's 16-4 win over the Rumble Ponies, as he collected 5 hits. "Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Rumble Ponies skipper Alex Castillo said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts." Nees 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." Chris Nees singled in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off John Albro in the 2nd, hit a three-run home run off John Albro in the 4th, singled in the 6th and singled in the 7th. This year, Nees has hit 7 home runs and posted a .324 batting average. |
