The Las Vegas (GCL) Hustle topped the Tampa Bay (GCL) Rays by a score of 8-5 at Roger Dean Stadium, but all the talk was centered on first baseman Brad Bateman.

"I felt comfortable at the plate in a way I haven't felt all season," Bateman said after the game. "It was like they were throwing beach balls at me - the ball seemed that big. And it just floated in."
Brad Bateman hit an RBI triple in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, doubled in the 3rd, flied out in the 5th and hit a solo-shot off Tim Garrett in the 8th.
Hitting .312 to date, Bateman has 4 home runs and 14 RBIs. He has played in 23 games.
