IPA SECOND ALL-DECADE TEAM 2011-2020
SP JERRY MEEKS (2008-2028)
17th on the all-time win list is Wynnamac's short, stubby southpaw Jerry Meeks, who notched an excellent 313-214 mark over 21 seasons with the Sundowners. Six times in the decade he notched 20 or more victories. Meeks was the Ruthlandian Most Valuable Player and Golden Arm winner in 2013. He was twice an All-Star. Wynnamac won the IPA Pro Cup in his rookie season in 2008, though Meeks did not play a major role, winding up 6-11 for the year with an ERA over 5.00. The Sundowners won 4 RU East flags during Meeks' career. In 9 playoff games and 8 starts the stylish lefty was 3-4 with a 4.17 ERA. Meeks retired at age 42 and became a member of the IPA Hall of Fame in 2029.
