His stats do a very good job of hiding keen-ness for the long ball. My apologies for suggesting it was unexpected.

Any offensive producing from him is regarded as a bonus, although this is the second season in his career he's actually a contributor on offense, even tho in a platoon. he hit leadoff a few times! What I meant as been keen for the long ball, is actually a keenness for the GWRBI maybe it is just a bias of me remembering his heroics, or maybe it's actually an hidden skill for clutch hitting, that Brock possesses and another player like Ben Robinson does not (an 18/17/13/15 hitter who seems to falter with men on base)

With the deepest pitching staff in BB and an all glove SS batting 9th who likes hitting game winning RBI, sounds like there is a prohibitive favourite in the final.

Both pitching and hitting skills are vastly in my favor. If skills and stats will be enough to win 2 out of 3, dunno! interesting fact: both finalists share the same stadium configuratio. Extreme hitters park: shorter outfield, and lower fences as allowed by the rules.

The injury buck bit Laredo as well The most recent cup's hero's, and best fielders on the team are out for the final game. Brock, the SS, was lost after game1 And now Webb, the C who hit one HR and recorded 3 CS in game2, is out too. What you're gonna do?
