2026 - Report #9
The San Antonio River Kings continue to be the American League offensive juggernaut in 2026 and today they blasted the Yukon Drillers 33-3 at home. The game was highlighted by a 6 hit performance by Jose Peraza who went 6 for 8 and drove in 4 runs. Mel Hall hit 2 homers and drove in 6 runs while Troy Glaus, Dave Clark and Wilmer Difo had 4 RBI's as well. Yukon had a 4 for 4 game with 2 homers out of Nelson Simmons which accounted for 4 of the team's 6 hits and all their RBI's
American League player of the week goes to Emil Batch of the Providence Chargers who hit 4 homers and drove in 16 runs while going 15 for 24. Batch is off to a .394 start as the usually futile Providence team is still bad at 6-12.
The Sacramento Bees are off to a 16-2 start and are tied for first in the NL Pacific with the Honolulu Riptide and their star player George Wright just won NL Player of the Week. Wright hit 17 for 30 for the week with 4 homers and 11 RBI's and is hitting a stellar .492 for the season
Daisy Davis improved to 3-0 today with a 15 strikeout performance as the red hot Tucson Tomahawks edged the Berlin Cannons 5-4 at home. Davis fanned 15 over 7 innings and Billy Koch came on for the save as Tuscon is 13-4 on the year and trail the first place Calgary Fusion by one game in the AL West.
