Medford's Luera Goes Ballistic with 5 Hits
Even as a kid, Omar Luera said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Rivermen Ballpark, Luera showed how well he learned that lesson.

The 22-year-old center fielder had 5 hits in 6 at-bats for the Medford Desperados, helping his team knock off the Ottawa Lynx by a score of 13-2.

"They always said, just keep your eye on the ball, don't overswing, make contact and you never know what will happen," he said. "That's all I did."

Omar Luera hit a two-run single in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 5th, grounded out in the 7th and doubled in the 9th.

So far on the season, Luera is hitting .318 with 1 home run, 9 RBIs and 9 runs scored. He has 14 hits and played in 13 games.
