The primary responsibility of a leadoff hitter is to set the table for the bats which follow. It is an added bonus when your leadoff hitter knocks in runs as well. Stat heads have a statistic to measure one's offensive performance related to this area: Runs produced.
Last week in games versus Milwaukee McGuire's, Pewaukee Muskies, and the Green Bay Billys, Mike Wajerski was particularly effective in producing runs. Not only did he score 4 times, he also knocked in two runs himself. His runs-produced average of 1.5 runs/game led the team and earned him Player of the Week honors for the first time this year.
In addition to producing runs, Mike maintained a hot bat. He hit .400 (6-15) to raise his season average to .333.
Congrats to Mike on achieving last week's honor.
