The Rivendell Royals called a press conference to announce that field manager Golloron Nerith had been named Shire Conference Manager of the Year earlier in the day. Staffers congratulated the 64-year-old baseball guru as he approached the podium.
“This city has allowed me to craft a winning ball club,” said Nerith. “When you take on a new job, there’s always some adjustment period, but everyone here has been cooperative. From the bat boys on up. Here’s to many more successful seasons for the Rivendell Royals!”
Nerith led Rivendell to a 97-65 record this year and a first place finish in the Shire Conference Elf Division.
