Big Day for Armand: Swats 5 Hits
Sunday, August 23rd , 2026
Even as a kid, Josh Armand said his coaches told him the key to hitting was making contact, and letting everything else flow from there. At Hot Rods Stadium, Armand showed how well he learned that lesson.
The 20-year-old center fielder had 5 hits in 5 at-bats for the Bowling Green Hot Rods, helping his team knock off the Aberdeen Ironbirds by a score of 8-7.
"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."
Josh Armand singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, doubled in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 6th and doubled in the 8th.
For the season, Armand is batting .344 with 89 hits and 5 home runs. He has scored 38 times and batted in 35.
