July 27th thru August 3rd, 1903 SIM

Ramrods maintain lead in Rawlings Division.... With another 4 win 2 loss SIM the Huntington Station ball club has kept a lead over the Atlantic City Rollers... The lead is currently at 1.5 games as the Rollers went with a 5 and 1 record this SIM...

Ramrods Ace Roy Oswalt has been on point in his last 9 starts with a record of 6 wins and 2 losses... Oswalt currently holds a 13-8 record with a 2.53 ERA in 210 innings pitched, and an excellent WHIP of 0.98...

Number 4 starter Tom Seaver has been pitching more like a Number 1 since his recall from Mount Sterling May 11th.... over his last 10 starts Seaver is 6-3 with 4 complete games... Tom 'Terrific' is sporting an 11 and 7 record and an ERA of 3.73 (2.18 since his return) and a WHIP of 1.24... One thing Seaver must work on is to keep the ball down as he has relinquished 22 HRs in a 164.0 innings pitched....

PLAYERS OF THE WEEK:


One of the league's most exciting young players, Roy Smalley III of the Atlantic City Rollers earned himself Chadwick League Player of the Week honors with a standout performance in last week's games. For the week the 20-year-old shortstop had a lofty .467 average (14-for-30), collecting 1 home run, 7 RBIs and 6 runs scored. So far this year Smalley III has hit .279 with 5 home runs, 29 RBIs and 37 runs scored.


It's always a thrill for fans of the team and students of the game alike when a superstar in the making shows what he's got. Harvey Kuenn, the Spartanburg Sparklers 19-year-old shortstop, put himself in the spotlight last week making him the clear-cut choice for Doubleday League Player of the Week honors. He ripped 14 hits in 30 at-bats, compiling a .467 average with no home runs and 7 RBIs. Kuenn's current batting average stands at .331 and he has chalked up 2 home runs and 29 RBIs.

PLAYERS OF THE MONTH:



KEY INJURIES:
  • Atlantic City Rollers: SP Bob Feller diagnosed with a fractured elbow, will miss 4-5 months.
  • Gulfport Shrimpster: C Earl S Smith diagnosed with a concussion, will miss 6 weeks.
  • Buffalo Tracers: SP Earl Whitehill diagnosed with a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament, will miss 9 months.
  • Palm Bay Indians: SP Al Javery diagnosed with a knee sprain, is day-to-day for 4 weeks.

NOTES:

The Petrocelli project shows Rico with a defensive rating of 24 at first base...

The Bob Feller injury is huge as Rapid Robert (who started the All-Star Game) goes down with a fractured elbow for 4-5 months which removes him from this season's play.... a quick look at what the Atlantic City Club is losing below:
