The young
Hendersonville first baseman posted a .343 batting average with 12 home runs, 32 RBIs and scored 23 runs.
Copriviza also worked pitchers for 15 walks to post a .444 on-base percentage along with an impressive .771 SLG and 1.215 OPS! 21 of his 36 hits went for extra bases and his 32 RBI's in 27 games marked the 2nd straight month that he eclipsed the 30 RBI mark in a month.
So far on the year
Copriviza, who is still only 23 has hit at a .292 clip with 79 RBIs, 21 home runs and 60 runs scored. If he keeps this up then this will be the first of many awards for this young kid.
