It's our first Weekly Awards post of the 2010 season!
The first JR Cigars Smokin' Batter of the Week goes to Sardine City's Ryan Braun. Braun was first in the league in slugging (.969) and tied for first in RBI(12) and homers (5), 3rd in OBP (.472) and 4th in batting average (.406). The Sardines got off to a slow start this year - in fact they were the last team to win their first game. But after that 0-4 start, the Straphangers won their next four and now sit even at 4-4.
Other notable batters: Arkansas' Chris Coghlan (.467/.543/.500), Blue Ridge's Hunter Pence (.438/.500/.781, 12 RBIs), Marietta's Kevin Youkilis (.344/.405/.906, 5 HR, 10 RBIs), and Philly's Albert Pujols (.432/.463/.676).
Our Sporcle.com Pitcher of the Week is Marietta's John Danks, who went 2-0 with a 1.20 ERA. Danks struck out 16 in 15 innings and sported a nifty 0.87 WHIP. Marietta has picked up right where they left off, sitting atop the Hanover Division with a 6-2 record.
Other notable pitchers: Vancouver's Zack Greinke (2-0, 1.62, 14 K), Newark's Ted Lilly (1-1, 1.42, 0.95 WHIP), Bridgewater's Alfredo Aceves (1.64 ERA, 0.64 WHIP in 4 games), Hillsborough's Dan Haren (1-0, 1.69, 0.88), Blue Ridge's Adam Wainwright (1-1, 1.80, 0.73, 17 K), and Las Vegas' Brett Anderson (1-1, 2.57, 13 K).
