Before the fireworks lit up the night sky over Deltaville Ballpark on Saturday night, the Deltaville Deltas bats lit up the outfield grass.

Five different Deltas had multi-hit games as Deltaville trampled the visiting Norfolk Benchwarmers by the score of 15-2.

The win pushed the Deltas record to 7-3 on the season, though it was a non-league game and does not count towards Richmond NABA standings. The Deltas return to league action this week with an away game at the Richmond El Heaters, followed by back-to-back home games this weekend. On Friday night, the Deltas host the Richmond Dirt Devils, and on Saturday the Richmond Trash Pandas visit Deltaville Ballpark. Both home games start at 7:30 p.m.
