Peterson Hurls Shutout
Sunday, April 12th, 2122: According to Jim Peterson of the Hartford Harpooners, "There are three important elements in pitching success: location, location, and location." He told his pitching philosophy to sportswriters in the postgame interview after his 5-0 victory over Hammersmith.

He blanked them on a 2-hitter, allowed 4 walks and had 2 strikeouts. "I really felt comfortable the whole game," Peterson said.

His manager echoed his comments, saying, "He hit his spots time and time again."

[Alan T]

Apex Goes Hitless Against Sentner
Wednesday, April 29th, 2122: "Don Sentner was just plain nasty on the mound today," according to his batterymate and quite a few of the Apex Assassins after the Noblesville hurler fired a 1-0 no-hitter.

The Assassins were powerless against him. "It is what we call in baseball 'filthy'... his stuff was just too much for us today," the losing manager told reporters after the game."

In an overpowering performance Sentner faced 30 batters in all and finish the game with 6 strikeouts and 1 walk.

"After the first couple of innings, I knew I had some good stuff going," Sentner said. "In the bullpen, it really wasn't that good, to be honest. But when I got out on the mound and flipped the switch, I had some pretty good stuff. I had a good fastball with control and I was able to throw my breaking ball and changeup for strikes."

This season Sentner has crafted a 2-3 mark with a 4.17 ERA in 36.2 innings. Opposing clubs are batting .253 against him and he has 29 strikeouts.

[Alan T]

Sentner is the first no-hitter for a Noblesville pitcher since Maxence Accornero pitched one five years ago. (Also against Apex)

[Alan T]

Cerda Picks up RL Monthly Pitching Honor
Friday, May 1st, 2122: When Jorge Cerda takes the hill, he's a good bet to nail down the victory for the Chico Rebels. At least that's the way it was in May.

He excelled with a 5-0 mark and 1.70 ERA in 5 starts. In 37 innings, he fanned 37 and walked 7.
That's why he was honored today as the Pitcher of the Month by the Republic League.


CL's Top Pitcher in April Is Wheeler
Friday, May 1st, 2122: Steve Wheeler's been around the league long enough to appreciate the honor he received today. After going 5-1 in April, the 28-year-old Apex hurler has been named Continental League Pitcher of the Month.

He fanned 30 in 48 innings, logged an ERA of 1.69 and allowed opponents to hit .165 against him.

Zambrano Wins RL Prize, Named Best Hitter in April
Friday, May 1st, 2122: Eduardo Zambrano battered Republic League pitchers all April and wound up taking home the Batter of the Month Award.

"I've been around Front Office Offseason League long enough to know you really have to work hard day in and day out to be able to put up this kind of consistency," the 33-year-old Zambrano told reporters. "I put in a lot of work, even on the days I may not take the field and it's always nice when everything comes together for me like it did this last month."

In 26 games, Zambrano hit .347 with 9 home runs, 24 RBIs and scored 23 runs.


Kishita Cops CL Batter of the Month Honors
Friday, May 1st, 2122: It was a successful month for Goro Kishita of Tokyo. He won the Continental League Best Batter Trophy for April.

Kishita batted .414 average, hit 6 home runs, drove in 19 runs, scored 18 times and compiled a .506 on-base percentage.

Top Republic League Newcomer Named
Friday, May 1st, 2122: It was an excellent month for Carlos Rijo. He really swung into action! The right fielder for the Chico Rebels was named April's best newcomer in the Republic League.

He captured the honor by hitting .422 with 27 hits, 3 home runs, 14 RBIs and 10 runs scored.


CL Selects Rookie Star of the Month
Friday, May 1st, 2122: Sosuke Yamada was toddling around on his tricycle when some of the guys he's playing against were in their prime, but the 25-year-old catcher definitely knows how to get to first, second or beyond. Today he was chosen April's Continental League Rookie of the Month for his remarkable month of hitting.

In 22 games Yamada batted .329 for Baltimore, slapping 27 hits in 82 at-bats with 2 home runs, drove in 9 runs and scored 7 times.

Friday, May 22nd, 2122: 32-year-old Rancheros pitcher Pablo Navarro had a strong outing against the Chico Rebels at Ballpark of Colorado, keeping them off the scoreboard the whole game. He struck out 6 in the 9-0 win and walked 3 while surrendering 2 hits.

To date this year Navarro has compiled a 5-2 mark with a 4.31 ERA in 9 starts.

[Alan T]

RL Starter of the Month Goes to Fletcher
Monday, June 1st, 2122: Veteran Tom Fletcher put together quite a successful stretch in May for the Chico Rebels, earning himself the Republic League Pitcher of the Month award.

Fletcher racked up a 5-0 record in 6 starts, posting a 2.44 ERA over 44.1 innings and striking out 40.

This season Fletcher has gone 7-3 with an ERA of 2.96, posting 75 strikeouts in 85 innings.


May's Starter of the Month Goes to Harper
Monday, June 1st, 2122: Dave Harper nailed down May's Continental League Pitcher of the Month award today, adding pressure on Brooklyn to get a deal done before the 34-year-old becomes a free agent.

Harper seems unfazed by the talk. "We get a deal done or we don't," he told reporters, "I'm not worrying about next year. Worrying about next year isn't what wins awards, you know?"

He fashioned a 4-0 record, reeled off 30 strikeouts, worked 38 innings and held batters to a .272 average for the month as he posted a 2.84 ERA.

His record this year is 6-4 in 13 starts and Harper has a 2.78 ERA.

[Alan T]

RL Batter of the Month Honors to Zambrano
Monday, June 1st, 2122: When guys like Los Angeles's Eduardo Zambrano win Batter of the Month awards, it just makes you feel good. In a productive May, the longtime Republic League veteran toyed with opposing pitchers all month long, collecting 48 hits in 108 at-bats.

The veteran first baseman hit for a .444 batting average and collected 7 home runs, 33 RBIs and 27 runs scored.

This season Zambrano has hit at a .397 clip with 57 RBIs, 16 home runs and 50 runs scored. He has played in 52 games.

May's Best Batter Announced
Monday, June 1st, 2122: His solid numbers speak for themselves. That's why Ricardo Marín of the Brooklyn Brownstones was named the Continental League's best batter in May.

The Brooklyn second baseman starred with a .450 batting average, no home runs and 11 RBIs.

In his stats this season, Marín has posted a batting average of .362 with 67 hits in 185 at-bats, no home runs and 14 RBIs. He has also scored 31 runs, walked 32 times and compiled a .478 OBP.

[Alan T]

Boniface Selected RL's #1 Newcomer
Monday, June 1st, 2122: Thomas Boniface is beginning to make a name for himself and he did it by posting a 4-0 record and a 3.51 ERA in May. For his spectacular mound performance last month he has been named BNN's Rookie of the Month in the Republic League.

The 25-year-old newcomer isn't at all intimidated by his lack of experience, at least not outwardly. In fact, by the way he has pitched beyond his years, you could easily mistake him for a veteran.

In 5 starts for the Bruins Boniface has struck out 15 batters in 33.1 innings, holding opposing hitters to a batting average of .244 during his hot streak.

This year Boniface has a 5-1 record and a 4.09 ERA.


Continental League Names Rookie of Month
Monday, June 1st, 2122: Brock Kesterton earned May's Rookie of the Month honors in the Continental League for last month's performance. The boyish Apex first baseman might be wet behind the ears, but he's proving that he has what it takes to play at this level.

Kesterton hit .455 with 2 home runs, 5 RBIs and 7 runs scored this past month on his way to winning the award.

Posting a .361 batting average to date, Kesterton has 6 home runs and 12 RBIs.

Marlboros Blanked by King
Sunday, June 21st, 2122: In an outstanding mound performance Matt King fired a complete-game shutout against the Marlboros. He tossed a 2-hitter for Chico to beat Toronto 6-0 at Ballpark of Toronto.

Presently King has a 9-1 mark in 14 starts with a 2.92 ERA. He has given up 81 hits in 95.2 innings, struck out 79 and issued 27 walks. Opposing clubs have compiled a .231 batting average against him.

Féliz Superb Against Halifax
Monday, June 22nd, 2122: The Winter Wolves manager was philosophical after his team was shut out by the Noblesville Millers 5-0.

"It was just one of those games, shake it off and do better next time," he said.

Ángel Féliz blanked them on 2 hits with 4 walks and 10 strikeouts.

"I kept them off balance. I could tell a lot of them were late on fastballs. They were fouling them off. Once you see that, it sets them up for other pitches," Féliz said.

"I set them up pretty good, where if they chased one breaking ball, they were going to chase another one."

In 14 starts this year Féliz has crafted a 3-7 record and a 4.96 ERA.

[Alan T]

Ransley Collects RL Pitching Award
Wednesday, July 1st, 2122: Los Angeles's Chris Ransley solidified his position as a fine reliever, claiming the Republic League Pitcher of the Month award for June.

Coming in from the bullpen 13 times he accumulated 2 saves and 16 strikeouts in 17.2 innings. He had a good month with a 5-0 record and a 2.04 ERA.

This year Ransley has registered 3 saves in 39 relief appearances. He has also compiled a 7-2 won-lost mark with a 2.20 ERA. In 57.1 innings he has fanned 58.


Cyclones Gou Chosen June's Best in CL
Wednesday, July 1st, 2122: Despite the number of years he's been in the league, Qin-shu Gou still gets excited when he puts together a quality stretch like he had in June. The 29-year-old starter for Tokyo was named Continental League Pitcher of the Month earlier today.

He collected 4 wins and no losses with 24 strikeouts in his 6 starts, putting up a fine 3.38 ERA in 37.1 innings of work.

So far this year Gou has a 9-4 record with a 3.57 ERA.

[Alan T]

O'Slattery Takes Best Bat Trophy in June
Wednesday, July 1st, 2122: There's nothing like putting up good, solid numbers in the last year of your contract. Today P.J. O'Slattery helped his contract negotiations by nabbing June's Republic League Batter of the Month honors.

The Colorado designated hitter put together a .297 batting average with 11 home runs, 25 RBIs and 16 runs scored.

Someone will surely be opening up the vault this offseason if O'Slattery continues at this brisk pace.

So far this year, O'Slattery is batting .259 with 19 home runs and 56 RBIs.


Schneider of Tokyo CL Batter of the Month
Wednesday, July 1st, 2122: Alexander Schneider is in the final year of his contract with Tokyo and today added a timely piece of hardware to his trophy case. Playing in 27 games in June the 32-year-old left fielder ripped Continental League pitchers for a .408 batting average, nabbing him the Batter of the Month award.

He also rang up 6 home runs, 29 RBIs and 23 runs scored.

If Schneider keeps up this pace, he'll cost someone a lot of money.

Schneider is currently batting .331 with 11 home runs and 65 RBIs.

[Alan T]

Daisen Picked RL's Top Newcomer
Wednesday, July 1st, 2122: A veritable toddler to the Republic League, Hidekazu Daisen just sewed up the Rookie of the Month trophy for June.

Over the past month the 25-year-old second baseman for Toronto hit .337 with 29 hits, no home runs and 9 runs batted in. He also logged 5 walks and compiled a .383 on-base percentage.

In 76 games this season Daisen is batting .314 with 81 hits and 1 home run. He has scored 24 runs and driven in 28.


Eberharter Grades Out as June's Top Rookie
Wednesday, July 1st, 2122: Franz Eberharter of the Halifax Winter Wolves captured the Rookie of the Month honors for June in the Continental League.

Posting a .314 average last month, he collected 32 hits, 3 home runs, 8 RBIs and 18 runs scored.

On the year Eberharter is hitting .278 with 88 hits, 6 home runs, 16 RBIs, .327 OBP and has scored 46 runs.

FOOL News: The All-Star Game Rosters Have Been Announced
Friday, July 10th, 2122: Nothing is for certain about the 2122 Front Office Offseason League All-Star Game. It may be dominated by top-notch pitching performances. Or it could turn into a home run derby. Who knows? Pitch by pitch, inning by inning, the game could feature a little of both -- six strikeouts in a row by a nasty southpaw -- or a 3-homer day for some superstar slugger -- plus great catches, thrills, chills and spills -- all the great and the unexpected things that can happen in a baseball game.
