NIRL FIRST DIVISION FIRST HALF RECAP

NIRL First Division 1st Place (Tie)

Co-leader Dutton (8-3) looks like the class of the NIRL First Division this year... pitching seems to be the main element in the pennant race... the Coyotes are led by right-hander Bernie Bartlett (7-3, 2.26 ERA) and they have posted the best pitching numbers with a 2.32 overall ERA... at the plate, Dutton's top guns are LF Karl Krieger (.220 BA) with three homers and 12 RBIs... Krieger is tied for the home-run lead and is tops in RBIs... 1B Peter Wallace (.289 BA) has driven in 8 runs, followed by 2B Tuck Thompson (.302 BA), C Jack Puckett (.457 BA) and rookie SS Bill Harlow (.209 BA) with 6 apiece... Puckett is the top hitter at midseason with a lofty .457 mark and 12 runs scored... Harlow is tied with 3 roundtrippers... a huge plus for the Coyotes is their defense... they are fielding .972, the best in the league by far, thus far... Dutton will have to continue to be at the top of their game to stave off Jackson, New Yerby and Stockdale... it looks like a fine, close race... last year's champ Kofa may still get back into the hunt, if their bats ever perk up and rejuvenate... and the pitching comes around to last year's levels.
