Southern League Player of the Week

The new season is just underway and we're ready to announce the Week 1 CCWA Players of the Week. This week Nick Mason of the Portland Royals is our player of the week. In his first career game he led the Royals to a win from the mound. He went all 8 innings, gave up 5 runs and 8 hits but struck out 12 and most importantly he got the win. The Royals played a very tough Reds team that just about won this one. At the plate Nick was 6 for 14 in the series, batting a healthy .429. He hit his first homerun and knocked in seven while scoring five runs himself. Lets see if he can keep it going this weekend against the defending CCWA champs, the Vancouver Yankees. Congrats Nick.
