Vu Goes on Rampage Against Catfish
It was a good day for the Firebirds at Catfish Ballpark as they clipped the Lakeland Catfish, 15-10. It was tremendous day for Kien Vu, who was on a hitting barrage at the plate, finishing 5-for-8.

"I don't know what to call that," the Daytona center fielder told reporters after his big performance. "I'm not 'dialed in' or 'in a zone,' I just try to keep it simple. Basically the pitcher throws the ball, I try to pick up the spin, then I hit it. Today I picked up the spin pretty well."

Kien Vu singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, struck out in the 4th, struck out in the 5th, singled in the 8th, singled in the 9th, singled in the 11th and grounded out in the 11th.

Vu is currently batting .283 with 1 home run, 4 RBIs and 8 runs scored. He has 13 hits in 46 at-bats.
