Richmond, Indiana – One of the top hitters in the Frontier League will again be in a Roosters uniform.

Trevor Hall was one of the top offensive players in the lineup last season. Hall led the team in batting with a .330 mark in 78 games with the Roosters. Trevor is in his second stint with the Roosters. He began 2004 with the Windy City Thunderbolts of the Western Division where he was traded from Richmond in the off season. Hall and pitcher Jake Gann were exchanged for pitcher Dave Campos and first baseman Kevin Brown. All four players were later teammates in Richmond after Windy City released Hall and Gann. Trevor Hall was the Roosters designated hitter in 2004, but spent some time in the outfield and at first base in relief of Brown. Hall finished with 15 HR and 66 RBI.

Erik Turberville returns for a second season in Richmond. The infielder hit .238 in 33 games last season. He began his rookie season with the Mid-Missouri Mavericks of the Western Division where he played in 9 games. Turberville played college baseball at Oklahoma City University (NAIA).

Tobey Riday-White, an outfielder from Berkeley, California played two seasons at Fresno State University. The Division I program in the Western Athletic Conference posted a 32-27 in 2002, Riday-White's senior season. Tobey batted .271 with 29 RBI and 7 HR in 59 games as a senior and was named to the preseason All-WAC team. His baseball resume includes a 2001 stint with the Wilmington Sharks of the Coastal Plains League, a collegiate summer league.

The Roosters begin the 2005 season on May 25th at McBride Stadium against the Florence Freedom. Game time is slated for 6:35pm.
