This season, Tiracorda had a batting average of .419, 26 hits and 2 home runs. 

Teammate, Luke Liptak, says  “He’s been a good lead off guy all year. He is always on base and will hit a homerun every once in a while. He’s also been the center of our defense behind the plate. We played 20 games and he was back there every game. He was a wall everyday and shut down runners on the base paths.”
