Triple Crown Award to Hornets Ace
Friday, October 6th, 2028
What a season Paul Barrett had this year. The ace of the Eureka Hornets led the Thurman Munson League in all the major pitching categories. He ranked first in wins, ERA and strikeouts to capture the Pitching Triple Crown.
In his epic season the talented Barrett finished with an outstanding 20-7 won-loss record, a 2.98 ERA and 237 strikeouts to top all other pitchers and put himself in line for the prestigious Cy Young Award.
"I hadn't thought much about the triple crown," confessed Barrett. "I just go out and throw the ball. That's all there is to it. All I want to lead the league in is wins."
His manager told BNN, "Paul makes my job easier. I rest easy knowing he is penciled in to start. He just goes out there to dominate the hitters. He doesn't like them. I don't think he ever met a batter he liked. We don't even let him throw batting practice."
