Barnes Punishes ABL Pitchers This Week Monday, July 18th , 1977 Houston fans have something to crow about today as Houston left fielder Randy Barnes 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 Barnes. He posted a .500 average (10-for-20) this past week with 2 home runs, 8 RBIs, and 5 runs scored. During the current season Barnes is batting at a .430 clip with 4 home runs and 21 RBIs. He has played in 25 games and scored 13 times. |
