Apparently not. We've had so many people in our house the last week, I'm not sure who belong or not.

Whew! Thanks Alan. The roster issue was probably me anyway, because without that export I had an invalid roster.

Hamilton Rips Brunswick for 6 Hits
Saturday, April 24th, 2094: On top of the Colorado hit parade today was Kyle Hamilton. He went to the plate 6 times and marched away with 6 hits, sparking the Rancheros to a 13-1 victory over the Brunswick Barons. The sweet swinging right fielder told reporters, "Each time I went to the plate, I was thinking about hitting the ball hard somewhere. When I focus on that, I usually have quality at-bats." The skipper of the Barons wailed to the press, "Too much plate. Not the way we planned it. Any hitter in the league will rip you when you do that." K. Hamilton hit a solo-shot off T. Tashima in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 7th, hit a two-run single in the 7th and singled in the 9th. Thus far this year Hamilton is batting .300 with 3 home runs, 8 RBIs and 11 runs scored. |

RL Rookie Star Shines
Tuesday, June 1st, 2094: Raúl Sánchez is still a bit shy, but then, who could blame the newest Republic League Rookie of the Month honoree? He hasn't been around the league long enough to fully know the ropes yet, despite the fact that he's putting up veteran-like numbers. In May the Colorado hitter tagged opposing pitching for a .278 average with 30 hits, 2 home runs and 13 RBIs. A look at his current stats shows Sánchez with a .271 average, 4 home runs, 28 RBIs and 22 runs scored. He has played in 51 games. CL Chooses Rookie of the Month Tuesday, June 1st, 2094: José Salinas earned May's Rookie of the Month honors in the Continental League for last month's performance.

Salinas hit .301 with 1 home run, 5 RBIs and 14 runs scored this past month on his way to winning the award. This season Salinas is batting at a .339 clip with 3 home runs and 17 RBIs. |

300 Homers for Merrick
Tuesday, June 8th, 2094: There was a big sigh of relief by Francis Merrick after he hit his 300th career homer. The Napa Valley catcher told BNN, "Whew. I'm glad it's over...now I can go back to just playing baseball." It was quite a day for Merrick. He got his name in the league record books, 2 hits, 3 runs batted in, scored 2 runs and his team, the Napa Valley Winemakers beat the Tokyo Cyclones 10-2. Merrick knew it when he hit it. He raised his hands in the air, then ran the bases like a high school player clapping and grinning. He told reporters in the post-game interview, "I was acting goofy running the bases... but it was my 300th home run." "It was great," his manager said. "He stood there and watched it...we all did. You just felt it was coming...you just had a sense he would hit it soon. He has been having a lot of good at-bats. It was great to get it out of the way." All-time Merrick has played in 1745 games, batted .213 with 300 home runs and 1418 base hits. |

Thursday, July 1st, 2094: Carlos Juárez was toddling around on his tricycle when some of the guys he's playing against were in their prime, but the 25-year-old right fielder definitely knows how to get to first, second or beyond.

Sunday, August 1st, 2094: Evaristo Bedeschi nailed down July's Republic League Pitcher of the Month award today, adding pressure on Ann Arbor to get a deal done before the 37-year-old becomes a free agent. Bedeschi seems unfazed by the talk. "We get a deal done or we don't," he told reporters, "I'm not worrying about next year. Worrying about next year isn't what wins awards, you know?" He fashioned a 4-0 record, reeled off 22 strikeouts, worked 29.2 innings and held batters to a .173 average for the month as he posted a 0.61 ERA. This year Bedeschi has compiled a 13-5 mark with a 2.29 ERA in 23 starts.

Salinas Reaches 300-Save Milestone in 7-3 Hartford Victory
Saturday, August 7th, 2094: Today was an historic day at Harpooners Ballpark III in Hartford. Once again the gifted bullpen specialist Jesús Salinas calmly did what he has done several hundred times previously - he saved the game for the Hartford Harpooners. The 7-3 victory over the Brunswick Barons was his 300th-career save and placed his name among the great relievers in baseball. Salinas nailed down the verdict by holding the Cubs to no runs and no hits in his 0.1 innings. After the final out, Salinas dropped to his knees and pointed a thankful hand toward the sky. After the game, Salinas told reporters, "This was in tribute to my deceased grandfather, who raised me and was such an important part of my life and upbringing. He would have been very proud of me today." Over his career in 622 games, Salinas has worked 714 innings with a record of 52-54. He has posted 300 saves, has a lifetime ERA of 2.76 and has struck out 659 batters. |
