Although second baseman Alan Hansen is having a great season, his name doesn't get the press first baseman Doug Coleman, center fielder Phil Kanaan, left fielder Glen Burns and pitcher Jesus Carvajal have gotten so far.
Hansen is hitting a quiet .356 from the lead-off spot with a .467 OBP and 19 SBs in 24 attempts, tops in the Tycobbian Union. He is second in the league with 45 runs scored, has walked 44 times with 15 doubles, 2 homers and 22 RBIs. He has played in 53 of Bayview's 55 games.
Hansen is an outstanding second baseman with a .996 FA. He is only 22 years old.
Hansen is third in batting average behind Eric Richter (.366), a very good catcher for the Luxora Zorros and Maury Smith (.364), a fine first baseman for Bay St. Clair.
