2017 Batesville HS graduate and Toronto Blue Jays prospect Zach Britton has been named the Arizona Fall League Hitter of the Week.

Britton went 9 for 13 at the plate with two extra-base hits and 9 runs driven in last week for the Salt River Rafters.

The Blue Jays selected Britton in the 5th round of the 2020 draft out of the University of Louisville as a catcher, but the 24-year-old has spent the past two seasons transitioning from behind the plate to the outfield.
