Game Highlight: Mason Robbins

      Tonight, I would like to talk about how Mason Robbins played an excellent all-around game, In tonight’s 9-3 loss against the Chatham Anglers, Mason was 2 for 4 with a double; He increased his batting average from .250 to .292; and increased his slugging from .400 to .458. Out of the 4 times he came to the plate, he produced 2 quality at-bats. He used the entire field to hit (had a base-hit to left and then hit a double to right). Not only did he have a good day at the plate, Robbins gunned out Aaron Brown at second base when he attempted to stretch his 7th inning single into a double. Robbins has had a hit in every game except the game Monday against Orleans. I noticed that in his spray chart, he has 4 hits to the left side of the field while creating only 3 outs. When hitting to the right side of the field, Mason has 4 outs with 3 hits. I firmly believe that Mason's power is based on his ability to drive the ball to Right-Center, but I wonder if he will continue to find more success hitting the ball the other way throughout the season.
