Week's #1 Player: Seattle's Boone
Monday, July 15th , 1974
Seattle fans have something to crow about today as Seattle left fielder Freddie Boone nabbed the American Baseball League Player of the Week Award for his performance over the last seven days.
"I know there are times when it's hard to lay off pitches. Everyone goes through stretches when he's too eager to put the ball in play. You know, though, I feel like this past week I was able to get in the right frame of mind and just let things come naturally," said Boone.
He posted a .529 average (9-for-17) this past week with 2 home runs, 5 RBIs, and 5 runs scored.
So far this season, Boone is batting .291 with 11 home runs, 44 RBIs and 37 runs scored. He has 82 hits in 282 at-bats, 41 walks and a .380 OBP. Boone has played in 87 games.
