Hitter of the Day

Cole Swiger Bloomsburg 2018The hitter of the day, for the 3rd time already, is Staunton’s Cole Swiger, from Bloomsburg! Cole went 4-5, with 2 runs, an RBI, a double, and a stolen base. He’s now hitting 397/433/508 with 9 stolen bases in 63 at-bats. Cole was the hitter of the day on June 10th and 15th, so I suppose it was about time he got another one…
