That's the most RBI Bartholomew has posted since back in April. Lane Huskey was another key player, going a perfect 1-for-1 with one stolen base, one run, and one double.

Lexington has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five games. That's provided a nice bump to their 29-13-2 record this season.
