Ferdinand *Puttifoot, known affectionately as “the old man” by the younger players in the Bounders clubhouse, showed his teammates how to do it last week — and in the process the 40-year-old vet beat out all competition for the Shire Conference Player of the Week Award.
He put up a .476 batting average, 10 hits in 21 at-bats, 3 home runs and 9 RBIs. *Puttifoot also scored 9 runs.
This year, *Puttifoot is hitting .339 with 13 home runs.
