Howell Torches Mavericks for 5 Hits
Adam Howell knows as well as anyone that in baseball, the biggest contracts go to the biggest hitters. At Mavericks Ballpark, he made his case to be considered among that group.

The 25-year-old shortstop hammered 5 hits in 6 chances, though the remarkable effort came even as his Atlanta Pilots fell, 14-9, to the Houston Mavericks.

"We made some bad pitches and he took advantage of it," Mavericks manager Kevin Read told BNN sportswriters after the game. "Thankfully, we were able to do enough elsewhere that Howell wasn't the difference."

Adam Howell singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th, singled in the 8th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.


This year, Howell has hit 3 home runs and posted a .215 batting average.
