Week-in-Review: August 15th-August 21st, 1966.
The Brewers go 3-4 on the week, losing 2 of 3 to the 3rd place Baltimore Lords, and splitting a 4-game series against the 9th place Charlotte Sting.

Who's Hoppy? Young outfielder Tom O'Donnell (.293/.325/.440, 0.9 WAR) continues to impress at the plate, going 7 for 18 on the week, scoring 3 runs (17), hitting 2 HR's (4), and driving in 4 runs (24.)
Middle reliever (and occasional closer) Bill Roache (0-5, 9svs, 4.43), who was so impressive in 1965 but has struggled this season, had a nice week, appearing in 3 games, allowing no runs on just 1 hit in 2 1/3rd IP, with 4 K (35) and no BB (12).

Who's Hungover? Another rough week for young centerfielder Zack Banks (.235/.289/.364, 1.3 WAR). He did hit his 8th homerun of the season (inside-the-park) but he was only 3 for 23, scored 1 run (43), drove in 2 (40), while striking out 7 times (68) and walking not once (25).

What's Brewing Around the League? No significant changes. Jacksonville remains in first in the SJL (77-49), Columbus is second (72-57) and Washington is in third (71-58.) In the Moonlight Graham League, Los Angeles (naturally) is in first place (80-45), Portland is still in second (75-50), while Baltimore holds off to distant third (68-56.)

The Streak Souffront Saga: Much of the same for Ruben Souffront (.228/.257/.327, -0.8 WAR). Ruben was 4 for 13 at the plate, hitting double number 9 and homerun number 4, scoring once (21) and driving in one (22), while walking just once (10) and striking out 5 times (54.)

Brewer's Power Ranking: #14 (#1 L.A., #2 JAC, #3 COL, #4 POR, #5 WAS.)
Brewer's Record: 58-68, .460, 8th place in MGL, 22 1/2 gb L.A.
