Week's #1 Player Honored by PCL Monday, July 10th, 1933 After all of Earl Sheely's years in baseball, some have suggested -- albeit very delicately -- that he should think about calling it quits. But the "mature adult," as he calls himself, showed last week that he's still capable of keeping up with the youngsters. The 40-year-old Portland first baseman was honored today as the Pacific Coast League Player of the Week. He fended off all comers by posting a .500 average with 16 hits in 32 at-bats, 3 home runs and 13 RBIs. For the season, Sheely is hitting at a .289 clip with 8 home runs, 43 RBIs and has scored 44 runs. He has 90 hits, 26 walks and a .341 on-base percentage. |
