Correlle Prime made his professional debut count Tuesday night in Grand Junction, Colo.
Prime had two hits and scored a run to help the Grand Junction Rockies, the Rookie League affiliate of the Colorado Rockies, defeat the Orem Owlz 12-7.
Prime batted seventh and played first base for Grand Junction, which takes a 5-4 record into tonight's game against the Owlz.
Prime graduated from Manatee in May and was a 12th-round pick by the Rockies.
