Williams stays hot with big hits for Javelinas

SURPRISE, Ariz. -- Justin Williams, the Tampa Bay Rays' No. 15 prospect, put on a show at the plate Thursday, going 2-for-4 with a single, a triple, an RBI and two runs scored as the Peoria Javelinas beat the Surprise Saguaros, 6-4, at Surprise Stadium.

Williams, a second-round pick by the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2013 before going to the Rays in the Jeremy Hellickson trade, is hitting .400 in the Fall League with a 1.258 OPS.

Peoria raced out to an early 3-0 lead, but they would trail 4-3 after five innings.
