Castro Voted June's Best CL Rookie
Tuesday, July 1st, 2138:
Pedro Castro was toddling around on his tricycle when some of the guys he's playing against were in their prime, but the 22-year-old second baseman definitely knows how to get to first, second or beyond. Today he was chosen June's Continental League Rookie of the Month for his remarkable month of hitting.
In 25 games
Castro batted .324 for
Tokyo, slapping 22 hits in 68 at-bats with 1 home run, drove in 7 runs and scored 6 times.
Thus far this season
Castro has hit .299 with 2 home runs, 15 RBIs and scored 19 times.
RL Names Lozano Best Rookie
Tuesday, July 1st, 2138:
Pedro Lozano is still a bit shy, but then, who could blame the newest Republic League Rookie of the Month honoree? He hasn't been around the league long enough to fully know the ropes yet, despite the fact that he's putting up veteran-like numbers.
In June the
Ann Arbor hitter tagged opposing pitching for a .315 average with 28 hits, 3 home runs and 10 RBIs.
Lozano is currently batting .301 with 12 home runs and 35 RBIs.
