RANFORD'S HAWK PROCLAIMED PRO CUP MVP
In a tight race Ralph Hawk, ace of the IPA champion Ranford Bulls, was selected the 2040 Pro Cup Most Valuable Player. Hawk bested two of his teammates, right fielder Dale Weston and reliever Frank Yosarian for the honor.

Hawk, a 22-year-old southpaw, pitched like a seasoned veteran in this year's postseason. He compiled 4-2 record in eight starts with a very fine 2.02 ERA. Hawk won games four and seven in back-to-back series against Summerland in the Pro Cup Finals and against Sligo for the Ruthlandian League crown. During the regular season Hawk put up a 20-14 mark with a 2.62 ERA.

Outfielder Dale Weston was the key RBI guy for the Bulls. He led them with a .360 batting average in the playoffs. Weston drove in 18 runs to lead everyone in the postseason. He had six doubles, three homers and scored eight runs.

Finishing third in the balloting was reliever Frank Yosarian, who made 11 relief appearances, registered a 2-0 record and two saves. Yosarian was the number-four starter in the regular season with an 11-19 record and a 4.82 ERA, but in the playoffs he thrived in the bullpen.
