Northern League Player of the Week

Denny King of the Lexington Brewers is our choice for the week 1 Player of the Week for the North. We expected Denny to be good his rookie season but this is ridiculous. Denny went off at the plate batting .364 while hitting his first two career homeruns. He also got the win on the mound in one of the games going the full 6 innings while striking out 11 and allowing 4 runs. King helped the Brew Crew get off to a great start and hopes to help them back to the Championship Series. With the Brewers getting so close last year and adding the free agents and rookies they did, anything less than a trip to the Cup is going to be disappointing. Look for Denny to continue his great batting this weekend against the Quiznos Indians. Congrats Denny.
