The fans of the Browns are a little worried with the way the teams form seems to have dipped at the start of this season. The team managed to gain only a 12-16 record during the month of April and it has left them sitting in 7th place in the NL table, 6 games off the leaders.

There was bad news for Short Stop George Shoch after his season was put on hold for 4 months with a broken hand. He is hoping he can come back stronger in the second half of the season.
The bad start for the team was influenced by the way that all of the players were off their form during April. This means we will not be highlighting any star this month.
