 April Keystone State League Hitter of the Month
HONUS WAGNERHonus Wagner of the Pittsburgh Pirates is off to a furious start this season in the Keystone State League, leading the Pittsburgh Pirates to a share of first place in the Western Division. Wagner has shifted to right field instead of his usual shortstop position to allow for Bobby Wallace to get in the lineup. Wagner is the table setter for the Bucs, leading off the batting order and topping the Keystone League with a .432 average. Wagner is also first in runs scored (26), total hits (38), stolen bases (23), on base percentage (.485), runs created per 27 outs (14.5), total average (1.564) and average vs. lefties (.560). He is second in doubles and triples.  April Keystone State League Pitcher of the Month
BILL DOAKBill Doak is the No. 3 starter in the Pirates rotation, but has rolled through the first month of the season, contributing to the best pitching staff in the league. "Spittin' Bill" or "Lumbago Bill" as he has been called, went a perfect 6-0 in six starts this year. His 1.18 ERA is third in the league and he is fifth in innings pitched. Doak worked one shutout and has allowed six earned runs in 45 2/3 innings. Right-handers are hitting .181 against him. Doak and the four-man rotation have gone 15-5 with a 1.98 ERA for the Pirates. sabr.org/bioproj/person/1359e4e2 |
