Blanco Wins Award for AC Dominance Sunday, September 9th , 2085 At the age of 20, Williams Blanco says he still has a lot to learn about life in RSL Single A. But he certainly seems to be a quick study, as the Baton Rouge Grapplers reliever was better than all others this year and has captured the 2085 Alpha Conference Reliever of the Year Award. "I hope to win this a few more times before all is said and done in my career," the Santiago de Cuba, Cuba native said. For the season, Blanco had 11 saves in 23 relief appearances, which totaled 89.2. He fanned 99 betters, while walking 18 and put up a record of 6-1 to go with his 1.71 ERA. He received 30 first place votes, as a unanimous winner. Tom Gibson of the Plano Elephants finished second in voting, while Francisco Moreno of the Toledo Red Dragons finished third. Player - Team - First Place - Total Points Williams Blanco - Baton Rouge Grapplers - 30 - 150 Tom Gibson - Plano Elephants - 0 - 85 Francisco Moreno - Toledo Red Dragons - 0 - 19 Adam Peterson - Plano Elephants - 0 - 16 |
