In other batting news, Grant Martinez and Ryan King did most of the damage at the plate: Martinez scored two runs and stole Two bases. while getting on base in two of his four plate appearances, while King scored two runs while going 3-for-5. Those three hits gave King a new career-high. Kevin Jones was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 1-for-3.
