Sundowners Meeks RU MVP Choice
Without Jerry Meeks the Wynnamac Sundowners would not have won the RU East crown this season. Meeks had a superlative 22-6 season with a brilliant 2.04 ERA and now has been awarded the Ruthlandian Union Most Valuable Player trophy given out annually by The Islandian Times. He was just recently chosen the best pitcher in the league and received the Golden Arm Award. Meeks struck out 197 batters in 306 innings, completed 14 games in 39 starts and had 4 shutouts in a marvelous year. Meeks is 27 years old and a five-year vet. He has an overall 68-38 won-loss record with a 2.75 ERA.

Meeks told reporters, "This was a special year. The Sundowners won the pennant and I helped them do it. It really is nice to get acknowledged this way. It's truly an honor to get this award."

Forest City's talented left fielder Joe Judlin was second in the poll. He played a huge part in leading the Lumberjacks to a surprise pennant in the RU West. They had been sixth the previous year. 31-year-old Judlin hit at a .320 pace with 35 home runs, 115 RBIs and 102 runs and provided much of the 'Jacks offense. This year's RU Golden Bat winner Hal Stevenson came in third in the MVP vote. The superstar catcher for the Sugar Valley Rattlers knocked 49 homers, batted .311, drove in 134 runs and scored 109 times. Stevenson topped the league in home runs and RBIs.
