In the twilight of his career, 35-year-old Rapu Vale of Dunharrow recaptured some of the old magic last week and came away with the Mordor Conference Player of the Week Award.
“I’ve been playing since I was a kid,” Vale told reporters, “but you’re never too old to feel the thrill of success.”
Vale outpaced the rest of the league’s hitters last week, reeling off 11 hits in 22 at-bats, 2 home runs, and 8 RBIs to stake his claim to the award.
Currently Vale has 3 home runs and a .301 batting average.
