Have you tried xtable?
library( xtable )
x <- structure(list(Record = 1:3, Average = c(34L, 14L, 433L), Maximum =
c(899L,
15L, 1003L)), .Names = c("Record", "Average", "Maximum"), class = "data.frame",
row.names = c(NA,
-3L))
x <- xtable( x )
print( x )
% latex table generated in R 2.15.2 by xtable 1.7-1 package

\begin{table}[ht]

\begin{tabular}{rrrr}

1 & 1 & 34 & 899 \\

\end{tabular}
