26 June 2299 - CA Player of the Week Chosen
At the age of 28, John Burp might have some potential he hasn't realized yet -- if his success at the plate last week is any indication. The Bunker Hill first baseman put up some exceptional numbers the past seven days with a .813 batting average. For his efforts Burp collected the Commonwealth Association Player of the Week Award.
He racked up 13 hits in 16 at-bats, no home runs and 4 RBIs last week in 4 games.
In the current season, Burp has put up a .563 batting average with 18 hits, 1 home run, 7 runs batted in and scored 5 runs.
26 June 2299 - Star of the Week Named in MA

So far this year Dirtman is batting .326 with 4 home runs, 24 RBIs and 15 runs scored.
