Oct 24 2041: Keep Holding On! - by Kirito_Whale on August 5th, 2019The conclusion of the 2041 season sees the Indians of Waipahu exhaling a big relief as they manage to avoid relegation this season. After their first full season in div 4 (IV.5) they put together an 83-77 record. Manager Graham Matthews thanks late-season acquisition Grady Lewis for joining the team in late August and guiding the offense from cleanup in the lineup to keep them alive in div 4.
Additionally, Matthews recognizes old Ace Pitcher Norm Cox, who's last home game and last victory in Waipahu sealed their clinch at staying in Div 4. At 36 years of age, Cox finished the season with a 5.02 ERA over 206 1/3 innings. His 5th straight 200+ inning season and over 5 1/2 seasons with the Indians he put together 31 POTG awards, 1 more than the rest of his career combined. Following the conclusion of the playoffs, Cox will be inducted into the teams HOF.
Lastly, Matthews recognizes team captain Stota Kinjoh (33) as this seasons team MVP. With a rejuvenating season, Kinjoh slashed .326/.399/.534 reflecting numbers from his prime. Strides forward from young studs Longo, Feliciano, Espinoza, and Hale were also critical factors in Waipahu's success this season.
Many changes coming next season, we're exciting to give it a shot at promoting to div 3!
Nov 03 2040: 2040 Playoff Champions! - by Kirito_Whale on May 23rd, 2019
That's a wrap on the season and the playoffs. The Waipahu Indians have successfully defeated the Livonia Lions in 6 games in the V.9 playoffs. Our coach Graham Matthews says that this victory would not have been possible without the playoff performances of George Isaksen (SP) and Norm Cox (SP). Cox and Isaksen combined for 29 IP (more innings in the playoffs than everyone else combined 23IP), 4QS in 4 GS.
Aside from our stellar pitching, it was instead Young Kim (SS) and Cesar Armendariz who carried the offense on the scoring side. It was a stellar season and great playoffs performance for the Indians. We march home on the trail of Victory!
Oct 03 2040: 2040 Division Champions - by Kirito_Whale on May 15th, 2019
The move to Waipahu must have paid off for the Indians! For the first time in franchise history, the Waipahu Indians will be promoting to League IV.5 (division 4). In our entire 40 year history, we have never accomplished such a feat.
Led by offseason signing wonder Teun Wilders, along with phenomenal performances from former 2030 (Kinjoh), 2032 (Yoshida), 2037 (Kim), and 2039 (Endo) 1st round draft picks from the Asian Pool, our offense was transformed. More importantly, it was our pitching that was revitalized this season led by veteran ace Norm Cox and SHUTDOWN UFA signed bullpen pitchers such as Conley, Bates, and Hale.
Lastly, this season marks the fastest division clinch in our teams' history. Adding to the accolades, we made it through 3 rounds of CUP, and are currently on track to end the season with an average of 6 runs scored per game and 4.4 runs against per game. This would mark the 1st time in our history with an average of 6 runs FOR and 4 runs AGAINST in the SAME SEASON!
LET US WIN THE PLAYOFFS NEXT!
