Red-Hot Highers Scorches Cornhuskers
It was a parade of hits for Neil Highers of the Rock River Rats at The Rat Hole.

Connecting almost every time he went to the plate, Highers finished the day with a total of 5 hits in 5 at-bats. His strong individual effort propelled the Rats to a win, 9-2.

"Highers was really good and we were really bad," groaned Cornhuskers manager Trey Burrell. "Next time he's that hot, we'll just walk him."

Neil Highers singled in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Carlos Nunez in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Cruz Castaneda in the 6th and doubled in the 8th.

Posting a .275 batting average to date, Highers has 4 home runs and 18 RBIs.
