EL Names Best Player

A red-hot bat made Frank Taveras the obvious choice for this week's Eastern League Player of the Week.

The Waterbury shortstop laid down some numbers that no one else could match, including a .500 average on 12 hits in 24 at-bats, 2 home runs, 6 RBIs, and 4 runs scored. Say no more ... he got the award.

This season, Taveras is batting .269 with 21 hits, 2 home runs, 9 RBIs, .370 OBP and has scored 9 runs.
