Furcal Torches Mariners for 5 Hits
Rafael Furcal was the King of Swing at Safeco Field in the 17-1 Detroit Tigers win over the Seattle Mariners. The Detroit shortstop stepped into the batter's box 6 times against Seattle and delivered 5 hits. It was a sensational game for him.

"Unbelievable feeling," he told the press. "It felt good. 5-for-6 isn't bad for your batting average either."

Rafael Furcal flied out in the 2nd, hit a three-run home run off Carl Pavano in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Tim Corcoran in the 5th, singled in the 6th, hit a two-run single in the 7th and singled in the 9th.

For the season, Furcal has produced 117 hits in 390 at-bats for a .300 average with 7 home runs and gotten on base at a .380 clip.
