Ballhawk League : Week 7
We have a first time winner of the ballhawk league this week, and its the District Boy. Congratulations. With the Washington Nationals having a horrible attendance, and a great park to snag in (with early gate times), watch out for the District Boy as he moves up the standings.
Other notes:
*Zack Hample snagged his 4,000th career ball in Los Angeles this week.
*Greg Barasch and Connor joined the league. (Barasch has over 650 career balls snagged)
*The Happy Youngster is back and snagging again after last week’s craziness. Good to see him back in action.
*Last week’s top ballhawk, Erik Jabs, attended 0 games along with 10 other ballhawks in the league.
