Ramrods go 3 wins, 2 loses during this SIM, while maintaining their lead in the Rawlings Division. Atlantic City with a good week has cut the Ramrods lead to 2.5 games.

Saturday July 4th game vs the arch rival Atlantic City Ballclub saw the Ramrods losing 2-1 in the bottom of the ninth.. Artie Nehf who had pitched an awesome game through the first 8 innings was sent out to pitch the 9th... The first pitch he throws Rollers Dan T Murphy raps a double to right center field... That brought up Art Shamsky (the hottest hitter in RABA), you would think a free pass would be given since that run means nothing, but no the manager decides to let Nehf pitch to Shamsky... Well the second pitch of the inning is laced to right for a single, RF Al Schweitzer changed the ball and fired a strike to the plate, but alas it was just late and Dan T Murphy slid under the tag with the game winning run..

The upcoming SIM will bring us to the All-Star break with teams being announced. I will live 3D Broadcast the All-Star Game on the Fredrock Baseball Network (most likely later today)...

PLAYERS OF THE WEEK:

Lee Maye has the tools to stick in this league for many years. The 22-year-old right fielder of the Southampton Sea Horses had a hot bat in the Chadwick League over the past seven days and won the Player of the Week honors. Maye batted .433 with 13 hits in 30 at-bats, 5 home runs and 9 RBIs. So far this season Maye is batting .320 with 16 home runs, 55 RBIs and 43 runs scored. He has 108 hits in 338 at-bats, 23 walks and a .367 OBP. Maye has played in 81 games.

One of the league's most exciting young players, Ken Singleton of the Skidaway Island Divers earned himself Doubleday League Player of the Week honors with a standout performance in last week's games. For the week the 21-year-old left fielder had a lofty .538 average (14-for-26), collecting 4 home runs, 8 RBIs and 8 runs scored. Singleton is currently hitting at a .307 pace with 18 home runs and 52 RBIs.
