TOP IPA ROOKIE PERFORMERS
The 2059 Islandian Pro Alliance rookie class is sparse and few in numbers, but 14 have had an impact on their teams... the best bets for this season's Rookie of the Year honors are Skippy Hayes, right-hander for the Far Mountain Redhawks and right fielder Johnny Pendergrass for the Summerland Sunsets... these budding newcomers are the frontrunners for the Ruthlandian Union and Tycobbian Union Rookie of the Year Awards.

Hayes is 11-4 for the year with a 3.33 ERA in 17 starts... the Redhawk rookie has tossed 2 shutouts and fanned 79 batters in 140 innings with 37 bases on balls... his biggest competition will come from third baseman Norbert Ruston of Eastshore, who is batting .309 with 23 doubles, 11 triples and 1 home run... Ruston has driven in 39 runs and scored 60 in 103 games... San Dimas second sacker Rodrigo Valdez has shown some good power... he is batting .275 in 89 games with 20 homers and 58 RBIs... Stoner shortstop Lyle Clanahan is hitting .266 in 101 games with 23 doubles, 2 triples, 1 homer, 31 ribbies, 54 runs and 9 stolen bases... and Claxton hurler Kurt Fritsch (10-9/4.31) has started 22 games and performed well at times.

The top freshmen performers in the Tycobbian Union are RF Johnny Pendergrass of Summerland... twice he has been named the Rookie of the Month... for the year Pendergrass is sporting a .325 BA with 15 roundtrippers, 45 RBIs, 55 runs 10 SB, while playing 103 games... another standout is East Point pitcher Vitorio Descalsco with an 11-5 mark and a strong 2.91 ERA... he has made 20 starts and posted one shutout... Rolling Hills has two newcomers... in 87 games third baseman Lloyd Bearden has hit .323 so far with 22 doubles, 2 triples, 3 home runs, 37 RBI and 40 runs... in 82 games his Reds' teammate CF Gil Arthur is carrying a .274 BA with 16 doubles, 6 triples, 6 homers, 39 RBIs, 46 runs and 14 SB... Tuckanarra second basemen Rex Heyman has done well in 99 games with a .282 BA, 19 doubles, 2 triples, 8 HR, 45 RBI, 60 R and 3 SB.

A few other rookies have contributed: White River southpaw Dink Scully (9-9/3.56) has 116 Ks in 151 innings and has hurled one shutout... lefty starter Ed Hill of Kenwood is 9-5 for the season with a pretty good 3.70 ERA... La Claire Maurice Aronson is 10-10 with a 4.26 ERA and one shutout... he has struck out 117 batters in 133 innings... and South Fork's Caine Hanlon is 8-7 with a 4.23 ERA in 19 starts.
