NWL Greats
In cooperation with Jimmy Gresham of the Vim! View, we are going to begin looking back on the first 17 years of the Season Pass Association. Of course, as the writer for the Nuka News Update, I will cover the NWL. With 17 seasons down and four more to go before the league becomes rookie affiliates for the CBO, there has been some fun baseball throughout the Nuka-World parks.
Today, let's look at a few of the hitters around the league who have sped their way to success. It was a tough list, but we thought the following criteria would make up the players we feel most embody "Speed Hitters":
Speed Hitters: SB, 3B, R. These are the guys getting on base and getting around the bases. They may be high OBP guys, hit a lot, slug, but we know they can fly.
1. Silt Bean, Cherry, 2303-2310 - Led the NWL in stolen bases in 5 of his 8 NWL seasons. Holds the NWL career record in SB. He was also 13th in
triples (32) and 10th in runs (447).
2. Rowboat Kinsella, Quartz, 2301-2310 - Kinsella was pretty good at all three statistical categories, finishing his career with 68 triples (#1 all-time), 383 runs (20th all-time), and 170 stolen bases (10th all-time).
3. Mike Blackheart, Cherry, 2300-2312 - Blackheart used 13 seasons to accrue stats, including finishing with 53 triples (2nd all-time), 462 runs (9th all-time), and 257 stolen bases (2nd all-time).
