BATTER
OF THE MONTH - AUGUST
BEN OGLIVIE, THUNDER
BEN OGLIVIE, THUNDER
Ben Oglivie's hot bat in August
helped the Thunder build a sizeable lead in the Hulbert Division as
they head to a division title and earns him Batter of the Month for
August. During August Oglivie had 42 hits in 112 trips for a .375
average, added six walks and a HBP for a .408 on base average. He rally
shined in the power department, though, as he launched a dozen home
runs and five doubles to produce a .741 slugging average. He drove in
29 runs (second in the league) while scoring a league high 26 times. He
also stole a base.
PITCHER
OF THE MONTH - AUGUST
MOOSE HAAS, THUNDER

Thunder on the mound the way Ben Oglivie did at the plate during August
and takes the Pitcher of the Month Award. Haas started six times during
the month, posting a 5-0 mark. He completed five of the six starts,
tossing one shutout along the way. Moose pitched a league high 51
innings, posting a sterling 1.59 ERA and miniscule 0.86 WHIP while
fanning 41 batters.
