Phillips improved his hit streak to 10 games, going a combined 9/19 over a four game stretch this week. On Sunday, he was a monster at the plate. Phillips pounded out three doubles and a three-run home run in a 4/5 performance with the bat. He also tacked on three runs scored and three RBI in the same game. Phillips was named CAA Player of the Week for his performance. He also improved his average to a team leading .333 on the season.

In the past week, Alitz went 6/13 over a four game stretch, scoring two runs and collecting four RBI.

During that stretch, Remillard had his second four hit game of the season, coming just three days after his first four hit performance.
