Shaffer Belts 5 Hits Sunday, April 28th , 2002 Some moments become linked with a particular player's career forever. Jacob Shaffer of the San Francisco 49ers had one of those moments when he went 5-for-6 at the plate in his team's 12-4 win over the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. "I won't forget this anytime soon, and I don't expect it to happen too often," the 22-year-old left fielder told reporters in the postgame interview. "I'll be happy to just get a hit or two every day. Enough to hang around the league a while longer. Like 10, maybe 15 more years." Jacob Shaffer doubled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit an RBI double in the 4th, hit a two-run triple in the 5th, hit a three-run home run off Jose Barrera in the 7th and struck out in the 9th. Shaffer is hitting .356 in 2002 with 23 RBIs and 10 home runs. View Boxscore View Game Log Watch Highlights |
