Hitter of the Day
There were a number of good hitting performances last night- just look at those scores above- but only one player had 8 total bases: Matt Rose, from Georgia State and the Harrisonburg Turks. Matt pummelled Aldie, going 3-5, with 2 runs, 4 RBIs, 2 doubles, and a home run. The rising junior seems well on his way to making ATVL’s top hitters list if he keeps this up: 408/462/592 in 71 at-bats, with 5 doubles, a triple, 2 home runs, and a 7/15 BB/K ratio!
