Hudson Collects Player of the Week Award
Monday, August 15th , 1977
Montreal fans have something to crow about today as Montreal third baseman Ed Hudson nabbed the American Baseball League Player of the Week Award for his performance over the last seven days.

"I know there are times when it's hard to lay off pitches. Everyone goes through stretches when he's too eager to put the ball in play. You know, though, I feel like this past week I was able to get in the right frame of mind and just let things come naturally," said Hudson.

He posted a .417 average (10-for-24) this past week with 7 home runs, 10 RBIs, and 8 runs scored.

This season, Hudson is batting .350 with 95 RBIs, 87 runs scored and 40 home runs.
