Hernandez Gets Award for Relief Work Friday, September 16th , 2078 Humberto Hernandez was a calming influence out of the Guadalajara Charros bullpen this season. His teammates and manager said he had a poised demeanor about him that was typical of someone much older and more experienced. His poise has paid off, as the 25-year-old turned in a sparkling season and has been named the winner of the Alpha Conference Reliever of the Year Award for 2078. The Chimalhuacan, Mexico native won the award with 5 saves in 42 relief appearances, 50 strikeouts in 60.1 innings and a record of 2-1 to go with his 1.94 ERA. He received 20 first place votes out of a possible 30. Dave Panetta of the Anchorage Homesteads finished second in voting with 10 first place votes, while Jonathan Hollers of the Riverside Spinners finished third.
