Michael Burgess of the Hagerstown Suns (low-a affiliate of the Washington Nationals) displayed lighttower-power as he slugged a total 16 homeruns on the way to winning the South Atlantic League Homerun Derby.

Reports are that several of the homeruns easily cleared the 70-foot scoreboard in right-center field.

Burgess is currently 2nd in the SAL with 14 homeruns, Mike Stanton of the Greensboro Grasshoppers (Marlins affiliate) is in 1st with 15.
