PSML Player of the Month June

Hitter

Luke Ketchum Miller Lite Falcons

.250 AVG .385 OBP .947 OPS .562 SLG 3 Home Runs 10 RBI’s played 11 of the 12 games.

Luke Ketchum started the month on a ridiculous pace. In the first game, he went 2-4 with two home runs with three RBI's. If we included his performance on May 31st he probably would've been the Hitter of the Month. He hit a home run in both games of the doubleheader on May 31st.

Alex Seaton Miller Lite Falcons

.500 AVG .625 OBP 1.208 OPS .583 SLG  7 RBI’s played 8 of the 12 games

Alex knows how to hit. Twelve hits in eight games. He has been excellent for the Falcons this season. Look for Alex to continue to be an X-Factor for the Falcons.

Zach Skulte Pour Bros Jacks

.400 AVG .500 OBP .940 OPS .440 SLG 6 RBI’s played 10 of the 11 games 

The 2023 PSML Batting Champion has been putting on a hitting clinic in clutch situations. The Pour Bros Jacks manager has helped his team in many ways, and as a result, the Pour Bros Jacks are currently in first place.

Colson Welgat Pour Bros Jacks

.462 AVG .531 OBP 1.070 OPS .538 SLG  5 RBI’s  5 stolen bases played 8 of the 11 games 

Colson has done about every for Pour Bros. He hits, drives in runners, gets on base, and steals bases. Five RBI's and five stolen bases in eight games is the thing that sticks out for me. Look for Colson to keep the aggressiveness as the season progresses.

Tyler Pippin Tin Lizard Twins

.400 AVG .486 OBP 1.219 OPS .733 SLG 2 home runs 12 RBI’s played 9 of the 10 games 

Tyler Pippin is the PSML Hitter of the Month, and there's a good reason why. He raked in the month of June. Twelve hits, and twelve RBI's in nine games is very impressive.

Colton Williams Brienzo’s Orioles

.370 AVG .393 OBP 1.060 OPS .667 SLG 2 home runs 5 RBI’s played 8 of the 10 games

Colton Williams had a great month for the Orioles. The Orioles catcher had two homers and five RBI's in eight games.

Haydon Hawksworth Weaver’s Bandits

.476 AVG .500 OBP 1.262 OPS .762 SLG 1 home run 7 RBI’s 1 stolen base played 7 of the 9 games 

Haydon Hawksworth mashed for the Bandits driving in seven runs in seven games. He will have to keep up the hot hitting for the Bandits as they play a lot of games in the month of July.

Jameson Dickerson Crusens Reds

.429 AVG .500 OBP 1.036 OPS .536 SLG 5 RBI’s 3 stolen bases played 8 of the 11 games

Jameson is a contact hitter that gets hits consistently. Last night against the Mariners he had his closes encounter of a home run, as he hit a ball off the wall for a double. Jameson is one of the reasons why the Crusens Reds are getting hot at the right time.

Cam Semelroth MoveSmart Mariners

.381 AVG .552 OBP 1.028 OPS .476 SLG 1 RBI 3 stolen bases played 9 of the 13 games

Every time I see Cam play, he gets base hits. He joked with me saying I have to come to all of his games. The Mariners have relied on Cam's streaky hitting, and hope for more in July.

Pitcher

Owen LaRoe Crusens Reds

13 innings 1-0 record 2 saves 0.54 ERA 7 walks 16 strikeouts 

Owen LaRoe has been lights out for the Crusens Reds. He has allowed just four hits in 13 innings of work. Hitters had a batting average of just .095 against Owen in the month of June. Every appearance by Owen this month was a great one.

Isaac Perez Kohl’s Diamond Gallery Royals

16 innings 3-0 record 0.88 ERA 4 walks 20 strikeouts 

The Kohl's Diamond Gallery Royals rookie pitcher has been the best, and consistent arm. His command is really good walking just four batters, striking out 20 in 16 innings. Look for the Royals to rely on Isaac in July, and don't be surprised if Isaac earns himself an award at the end of the season.

Cole Thomas Brienzo’s Orioles

18 innings 3-0 record 0.78 ERA 10 walks 20 strikeouts 

Cole Thomas has been dominant for the Orioles. He allowed just ten hits in 18 innings in the month of June winning every start.

Jace Wilkerson Tin Lizard Twins

26 innings 4-0 record 1.08 ERA 4 walks 34 strikeouts 

The PSML Pitcher of the Month Jace Wilkerson was dominant in the month of June throwing 26 innings. His command has been excellent walking just four batters striking out 34.

Brandon Barrientos Firehouse Pizza Expos

17 innings 1-0 record 1.24 ERA 7 walks 22 strikeouts 

Brandon has been consistent for the Expos, and has a great arm. He has allowed just nine hits in 17 innings in the month of June. The Expos have some arms, and will rely a lot on Brandon as the Expos look to make a push for the postseason.

Clay McConkey Miller Lite Falcons

14.1 innings 2-0 record 1.47 ERA 4 walks 22 strikeouts

We can't talk about the pitcher of the month award without including Clay McConkey. 22 strikeouts in 14.1 innings. To nobody's surprise Clay continues striking guys out and giving the Falcons chances to win.
