Carson Batters Hartford for 5 Hits
Buffalo right fielder William Carson had a day to remember, 5-for-7 against the Hartford Blue Coats at Charter Oak Field as the Bluebirds picked up a win, 16-0.

"He was patient up there," Buffalo skipper Tim Timpano told the press after the game. "I like the way he waited for his pitch and wasn't overly aggressive. Carson has a tendency to chase bad balls sometimes."

William Carson singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 5th, grounded out in the 7th, singled in the 8th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.

Currently Carson is batting .414 with 8 home runs and 64 RBIs.
