No matter what the Albany Ambassadors threw at him, Eduardo Tait hit it. He easily handled Ambassadors pitching, going 5 for 5 and helping the Castors triumph, 10-4, at Ballpark of Quebec.

"The way I was swinging, I think I could have closed my eyes and hit the ball," he told BNN reporters in the postgame interview.

Told of Tait's quip, Ambassadors skipper said he "would take him up on that next time."

Eduardo Tait hit an RBI single in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Ian Villers in the 8th.
