PENDERGRASS BEST TU ROOKIE
The fans in Summerland had a lot to cheer about all season long... his name is Johnny Pendergrass, this year's Tycobbian Union Rookie of the Year... the 21-year-old centerfielder got the best of his freshman peers with a solid .313 batting average in 147 games with 24 homers, 68 ribbies, 82 runs scored and 17 stolen bases... Pendergrass did it all, at bat and in the field, too... he led the Sunsets to a third-place finish in the TU South.

Vitorio Descalsco of East Point wound up a close second in the top Rookie balloting... he paced the Panthers to fifth place in the TU East race with a fine 16-10 record and a 3.14 ERA... Descalsco, age 22, had 12 complete games in 30 starts and posted two shutouts.

Third place went to Lloyd Bearden, third baseman for the Rolling Hills Reds... the 28-year-old played in 123 games in his rookie year, batted .308 with 143 hits, 27 doubles, 4 triples and 3 home runs... Bearden helped the Reds to the second spot in the TU West standings... they missed the pennant by just one game to the Denton City Redbirds... Bearden drove in 58 runs and scored 50 in his first year in the IPA.
