Jordan's hit streak grows to five games
The Associated Press
ZEBULON, N.C. — Michael Jordan has reached that magic baseball number — 300.
The former NBA star extended his hitting streak to five games yesterday, going 2-for-4 to raise his average to .304 in his return to his home state as a professional baseball player.
Jordan has gone 7-for-23 after seven games and is now the leading hitter for the Double AA Birmingham Barons. He also picked up his fourth stolen base during a 4-3 loss to the Carolina Mudcats.
After taking the day off Saturday night, Jordan was back in the lineup batting seventh and playing right field, drawing an overflow crowd of 8,045 to Five County Stadium.
After falling behind 0-2 and bouncing weakly to second base his first time at bat, Jordan smacked a sharp single to left field in the fourth, and his lazy fly to right fell in three innings later.
Jordan was picked off after his second single, but showed his athletic ability during the rundown as Carolina had to make six throws before getting him between first and second.
Jordan popped up to second base to lead off the ninth.
It was Jordan's second multi-hit game. He has all singles.
Jordan had an uneventful day in the field, his only chance a one-hop single, which he fielded cleanly.
Jordan last played organized baseball at Laney High School in Wilmington, about two hours from Zebulon.

The crowd cheered each time Jordan walked to the plate. Carolina's mascot, Muddy the Mudcat, had some fun by carrying around a cardboard figure of Orlando Magic center Shaquille O'Neil wearing a uniform.
Before the game, Jordan took some extra hitting for about 20 minutes, shaking off some rust from an all-night, 10-hour bust trip.
Jordan received a citation from Secretary of State Rufus Edmisten before the game, and a plane with a streamer welcoming Jordan later flew over the stadium.
