Not every ball that came off Zurthug the Masher’s bat last week was a line drive or a towering shot — it just seemed that way to the teams that played the Minas Ithil Wyrms. For his exploits, the Masher was named this week’s Shire Conference Player of the Week award.
The Minas Ithil first baseman put up 11 hits in 22 at-bats and 4 home runs while hitting .500 with 9 RBIs and 5 runs scored.
Thus far this season, the Masher has hit .299 with 30 home runs, 80 RBIs and scored 78 times.
