Thursday, July 17th, 2036: Zavala Whips Hartford
Chico hurler Pablo Zavala was at his best as he whitewashed the Hartford Harpooners 2-0 today. "He just kept the ball down, did a good job, made his pitches," said the Hartford manager. "We didn't do a good job making adjustments, so we helped him out a little bit." Zavala fired a 6-hitter and totaled 10 strikeouts and no walks in the shutout performance. Looking at his season stats, Zavala has won 9 and lost 3, collecting 99 strikeouts and 43 walks in 132.2 innings with a 3.53 ERA. |

Friday, August 1st, 2036: RL Names Higashi Best Rookie
Horiuchi Higashi of the Hammersmith Hooligans collared July's Rookie of the Month honors in the Republic League. Last month he put up a .350 BA, 41 hits, 6 home runs, 27 RBIs and scored 22 times. Looking at his stats this year, Higashi has compiled a .299 batting average, while hitting 25 home runs and driving in 83 runs. He has played in 111 games and scored 75 runs. Friday, August 1st, 2036: Sensational Month for CL Rookie Hitomaro Okamoto is still a bit shy, but then, who could blame the newest Continental 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 July the Napa Valley hitter tagged opposing pitching for a .293 average with 34 hits, 2 home runs and 14 RBIs. This season Okamoto is hitting .306 with 12 home runs. |

Wednesday, August 13th, 2036: Browne Records Win #250
His goal at twenty was to win twenty games one year, pitch until he was thirty, win the league pennant and to make some money. Well, Kieran Browne did something even better -- the 37-year-old Edmonton Edge star has now won 250 games in his career. That put him in a very select group of pitchers. He joined that exclusive club today at Edge Ballpark by whipping the Tokyo Cyclones 6-3, holding them to 6 hits in 8 innings while chalking up 6 strikeouts and 2 walks. In the postgame interview, the modest Browne said, "It's special to win 250 games. You don't do it by yourself. You do it with good stuff and a good bullpen. You are only as good as the guys behind you. Years from now I might look back on it and give myself a little pat on the back." Lifetime Browne has 250 victories and 199 defeats with a 3.70 ERA. |

Monday, September 1st, 2036: RL Honors August's #1 Pitcher
There was little doubt around the Republic League that Vicente Betancourt would be awarded Pitcher of the Month honors for August. Today, they made it official, naming the 24-year-old Hammersmith Hooligans starter the latest honoree. He thoroughly dominated the hitters who stood in against him, holding them to a .226 batting average while fashioning a 3.73 ERA in 7 starts. His record for the month was 6-0 in 50.2 innings of work. This season Betancourt has compiled a 19-5 mark with a 3.18 ERA. |

Monday, September 1st, 2036: Hensley CL's #1 Pitcher in August
Mike Hensley has been around the league long enough to know that relievers are often overlooked. That has never stopped him from doing what he does best -- and he did it extremely well in August and stole away with the Continental League Pitcher of the Month award. The Settlers bullpen ace collected 9 saves and 15 strikeouts in 15.1 innings, holding the opposition to a .154 average and posting a 1.17 ERA and a 2-0 record. This year Hensley has made 63 relief appearances and saved 27. His record is 4-4 with 87 strikeouts in 95.1 innings and a 2.74 ERA. |

Monday, September 1st, 2036: Hammersmith Rookie Top Vote-Getter in RL
Yes, Vicente Betancourt is just a rookie. But he is a special rookie. Today the 24-year-old Hammersmith starter was awarded the Republic League Rookie of the Month trophy for his standout performance in August. He dominated the rookie class, registering 6 wins and no losses in 7 starts with 53 strikeouts in 50.2 innings and a 3.73 ERA. Not bad for a first-year man. In 2036 Betancourt has fashioned a 19-5 mark, 3.18 ERA and pitched 235 innings. Opposing clubs are batting .225 against him and he has logged 249 strikeouts. Monday, September 1st, 2036: Top Rookie of the Month Named by CL Hitomaro Okamoto earned the Continental League Rookie of the Month honors for his fine stretch of play in August. The 21-year-old Napa Valley right fielder batted .284, smacked 6 home runs and drove in 24 runs. He also tagged 33 hits, scored 17 runs and picked up 4 walks on his way to a .312 on-base percentage. For 2036 Okamoto is batting .302 with 18 home runs, 88 RBIs and 81 runs scored. |

Friday, September 5th, 2036: Hammersmith's Carey Hammers #300
"I wasn't trying to hit a homer. I just wanted to make contact." That's what Travis Carey told reporters after he made baseball history today at Ballpark of Hammersmith. The prolific slugger belted home run #300 in the Hammersmith Hooligans 15-10 victory over the Ann Arbor Winged Lingerines. The standout catcher collected 2 hits in 6 at-bats with 2 runs batted in and 2 runs scored. "I guess this puts me in baseball's elite," said Carey. "I don't feel any different. I probably should, but I don't. Still, it is a nice achievement. I did get a little excited, didn't I?" Carey has a lifetime .234 batting average and .316 on-base percentage in his 1986-game career with 1705 hits and 300 home runs. |

Looks like over in the RL that neither Hammersmith or Colorado want the playoff spot going 5-5 and 2-8 out of their last ten.
Still a blast of a season!!!! Looking forward to the finish!! Last edited by muns : 09-14-2009 at 10:04 PM. |

Well I think the Village Idiot is actually a fairly smart guy and he figured Lemieux to be worth roughly an extra 10 wins. So I would say it would have made for a darn close 3 team race for the final playoff spot with Edmonton way out in front.. Almost like what he predicted!! |
