Hardt is Player of the Week


BALTIMORE, MD. May 27, 1912 - 24-year-old Lee Hardt sent shock waves through United Baseball Association last week with an eye-popping performance that brought him the Federal League Player of the Week Award.

A newcomer to the league, Hardt made the establishment sit up and take notice, punishing opposing pitchers with a .593 average, 16 hits in 27 at-bats, 1 home run and 3 RBI.

Where the Baltimore Terrapins shortstop goes from here, only the baseball gods know for sure, but Hardt certainly made his mark last week.

It's a two-team race in the Federal League, and Baltimore sits just three games back of Buffalo. If Hardt continues to hit like this, Buffalo will need to watch out. Hardt is currently hitting at a .356 pace with 1 home run and 17 RBIs.
