Week 4 Player of the Week

Matt Miller of the Couch St. Wizards is named player of the week for week four. He had a monster series against the Portland Penguins that included three homeruns (one of which was a grand slam) and a pitching victory on the mound. His presence at the plate has been a huge reason why the Wizards are still undefeated.

Greatness signs with Brewers


In a surprise move yesterday, TJ McNeely agreed to play with the Lexington Brewers this season. He should play in his first game for them today against league rivals Jackmove.
He moved to Las Vegas last season and will only be available a couple of times a season, but his presence on the field had at least three teams bidding for him.
It looked like he was gonna rejoin the Pirates after leading them to a league title last year but instead signed with the Brewers. It's also rumored that Quiznos and the Colt .45's were also interested in signing him.
If the Brewers make it to the playoffs and TJ makes it back for them, it could be trouble for whoever has to face them.

Willie's first at-bat

Portland Penguins team captain Erik Williamson in his first CCWA at bat. He's up against Dan Hurley of the Couch St. Wizards. Hilarity ensues.

Mills goes off against Penguins

Matt Miller of the Couch St. Wizards hit three bombs yesterday in a doubleheader against the Portland Penguins. In the first game Mills hit a grand slam in the fifth inning to put the game out of reach for the Penguins. In game two he hit two homeruns and teammate Dan Hurley added one to keep the Wiz undefeated.
With his performance yesterday, Matt moves into second place on the HR list with four round trippers this season. He is right behind Ed Bert of the Laurelhurst Pirates who has six bombs. He passed Matt Jones of Jackmove who is currently at three homeruns. There is approximately seven other players with two each.
Way to go Mills!

Week 3 Co-Player of the Week

In week three, Ty Baker made his first start for the Femme Fatales against team Quiznos. Ty would go on to pitch the whole game, allowing one hit, six walks and striking out a new CCWA record 18 on the way to the victory. Every out his team recorded was by strikeout. It was a performance that may never get matched in CCWA play. In game two, with his team up by four, Ty came in and pitched the sixth inning allowing one walk and striking out three.
No pitcher has ever struck out 21 over seven innings and I doubt it will happen ever again. Great job Bakes!
