See if you can spot the Detroit Wolverine among the Liberty League batting leaders. Hint: I may have cheated and not put one in there, though there is one ex-Wolverine listed that I, in my infinite wisdom, traded away this past Winter.

I am listing the top 25 hitters in batting average plus any others who lead in some category. With 8 teams, that leaves room for an average of 3+ batters per team, yet there is no room for a Wolverine....

The reason for this is 1) our team hitting stinks and 2) we only have one player who has played enough to qualify for the the list. Injuries have been pretty devastating this season to our offense.
Told you, I suck with names. I was entirely convinced it was Joe Coffey. Now I looked at my newspaper cutouts and it was not Joe Coffey. Although I was pretty close...
