League News
Shutouts weren't uncommon in the first month. Isaac Hicks (MAR) tossed a 2-hit shutout in his first start, locking down the Gentry Hills Scouts on 108 pitches. Hawkeye Odle (SIL) shut down the Tifton Generals in a 1-hit shutout, striking out 9 and walking 3. Broderick Earl (GEN) joined the club with a 3-hit, 9-strikeout gem and was named the first Bay League pitcher of the month for his efforts, allowing just 2 earned runs in 3 starts and striking out 28.
The budding debate over the top first baseman in the Bay League had plenty of fodder in the first month, as both Ace Gervin (DPV) and Riyad Gomes (ESP) hit 2 homers in a game. After going hitless in his first game, Gervin is hitting .619, while Gomes is struggling a bit more but still hitting .300 with 5 walks and slugging .650.
