Keeping it in the family

RAVENHILL - As usual, Hammermaker is atop the list of Mordor Conference batters. Only this time, it's not Kobur, it's his little brother, Husil that is in the spotlight.

Husil, 22, was taken by the Darkwings in the Rule 5 draft and is having a terrific rookie season, batting .388 and taking over the starting catching duties for Ravenhill. With Kobur out of the lineup for a bit, he doesn't currently have the minimum at-bats to qualify for the leaderboard. That will surely change as the season continues, but for now, Husil Hammermaker is keeping the Hammermaker tradition alive.
