Godfathers Nick Christensen Wins SA Award: With some great hand-eye coordination and a sweet, compact swing, Pontiac Godfathers shortstop Nick Christensen took the USSL Single A by storm this past week to take the latest Player of the Week honors.
"The ball was looking like a beach ball all week," a happy Christensen said to BNN reporters. "When it's that big, it doesn't matter where they throw it -- I can hit it anywhere." The 22-year-old shortstop hit .467 (7-for-15) last week with 2 home runs, 3 RBIs and 4 runs scored. Christensen is hitting .309 this year with 14 home runs and 34 RBIs. He also has an OBP of .377, 21 walks and scored 35 times. |
