 | Monday, May 1st, 1905: Beckley Punishes NL Pitchers This Week
His critics are starting to suggest that St. Louis's Jake Beckley doesn't have much left, but the 37-year-old Beckley prefers not to think that way. He cooked up a remarkable week in the last seven days, topping it off with the Player of the Week Award in the National League.
The veteran first baseman for the Cardinals rolled to a .517 average (15-29) with no home runs and 3 RBIs.
In 16 games this season Beckley has batted at a .349 pace with 22 hits and no home runs |
