Anchorage's Long Goes Ballistic with 6 Hits
Thursday, September 17th, 2026
6 hits in a game is generally considered a noteworthy achievement, but for Rich Long, it felt rather hollow.
The 28-year-old went 6-for-7 at the plate at Cabela's Park today, but his Anchorage Ice Sox fell to the Norfolk Commodores, 9-6.
"It's hard to get too excited," the center fielder told BNN following the game. "After a game like this, everyone's quiet and they just want to go home."
Rich Long singled in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Josh Berger in the 4th, singled in the 6th, singled in the 8th, singled in the 10th, singled in the 12th and flied out in the 13th.%ballpark]
Long is hitting .261 for the season with 20 home runs, 63 RBIs and 60 runs scored. He has 131 hits in 501 at-bats and played in 133 games.
