Bond Helps Avalon Cruise to 10-3 Win
Mike Bond, who is tied for 9th in the BUL in extra base hits with 53, led Avalon to a triumph over Knoxville. The final score was 10-3. The right fielder went 3 for 4, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 3 runs and added 3 RBI. The first-place Flying Aces, at 71-41, lead the Bob Uecker League North Division by 4½ games.

With Avalon leading 4-3 in the top of the sixth, Bond hit a splitter from Rusty Higginbotham for a 2-run home run. It was his 21st home run of the season and put the Flying Aces ahead, 6-3.

Avalon manager Jeff P. Jr commended his team for "putting the hammer down."
