Super Week for Minneapolis's Burke! Monday, September 15th , 2064 No single hit brought Jaheim Burke Player of the Week honors -- the Minneapolis Freeze catcher corralled the award with a consistent approach in every at-bat. "Hitting is all about discipline," said Burke. "When you lose focus, start to lunge at the ball and swing too aggressively... swinging at a lot of bad pitches... that's when your average starts to drop and you wind up fighting for playing time. You're most successful when you concentrate on the ball and make 'em throw strikes." Concentrate he did. Burke stroked 11 hits in 23 at-bats while cranking out 3 home runs, 13 RBIs and 5 runs scored. Posting a .270 batting average to date, Burke has 18 home runs and 57 RBIs. |
