Aussie young gun gets tongues wagging again in MLB

Just four days after making his MLB debut for Cleveland, Travis Bazzana has got his first hit in the 14-6 win over the Athletics.

The first Australian to be taken with the No.1 pick in the draft, two years ago, followed up his RBI two-run single in the seventh inning by immediately stealing his first base at Raley Field, West Sacramento, on Saturday (Sunday AEST).
