4 May 2296 - Players of the Week
BL: Four Leafs Tatoeater Snags BL Player of the Week: One of the league's most exciting young players, Peter Tatoeater of the Finch Farm Four Leafs earned himself Brotherhood League Player of the Week honors with a standout performance in last week's games.
For the week the 18-year-old third baseman had a lofty .600 average (9-for-15), collecting 3 home runs, 11 RBIs and 6 runs scored.
To date Tatoeater has chalked up a .485 average with 6 home runs, driven in 22 runs and scored 20 times.
IL: IL's Star Player Named: It's always a thrill for fans of the team and students of the game alike when a superstar in the making shows what he's got. Crooked Tostado, the Lexington Synths 18-year-old right fielder, put himself in the spotlight last week making him the clear-cut choice for Institute League Player of the Week honors.
He ripped 9 hits in 13 at-bats, compiling a .692 average with 1 home run and 5 RBIs.
For the year Tostado is hitting .379 with 3 home runs. His stats include 12 runs batted in and 14 runs scored.
ML: Mirelurks Tutton Gatekeeper Swings Hot Bat, ML Winner: So far in his young career, Tutton Gatekeeper has kept a low profile, but after his performance at the plate last week, he attracted the notice of the rest of the Minutemen League in a big way as he was named the Player of the Week today for his efforts.
The 18-year-old Warwick Mirelurks third baseman hit at a torrid .636 clip as he collected 7 hits in 11 at-bats, 2 home runs, 4 RBIs and 4 runs scored.
This season Gatekeeper is batting .350 with 21 hits, 4 home runs, 12 RBIs, .435 OBP and has scored 12 runs.
RL: RL Star of the Week Honored: At the age of 30, Curtis Slingshot might have some potential he hasn't realized yet -- if his success at the plate last week is any indication. The Oberland first baseman put up some exceptional numbers the past seven days with a .545 batting average. For his efforts Slingshot collected the Railroad League Player of the Week Award.
He racked up 6 hits in 11 at-bats, 1 home run and 5 RBIs last week in 3 games.
This year Slingshot has socked 24 hits in 55 at-bats for a .436 average with 5 home runs. He is getting on base at a .500 pace and his totals also include 21 RBIs and 13 runs scored.
