Velasco, Aggies Too Much for Hillbillies
The Atlanta Aggies took on the Poplar Bluff Hillbillies at Owls Ballpark.

The Atlanta Aggies defeated the Poplar Bluff Hillbillies, 13-5, in part because of center fielder Carlos Velasco. Velasco was 3-4 with a home run, a double, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2 for the Aggies. Mike Custer snagged the win in relief. He goes to 2-1 on the season. Jose Sanches suffered the loss.

Atlanta used the bat of Matt Grissom to get the win. The right fielder spanked a grand slam home run in the top of the first inning to put the Aggies ahead, 5-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it altered the outcome.

"We came out aggressive," said Aggies manager Jeremiah Simpson. "We came out swinging the bats."

The Aggies raised their record to 38-68.
