Miami: The Good, The Bat and The Ugly
The following is No. 10 of a 20-part series reviewing the 2006 All-American Baseball League. Each feature will focus on one team. It will include the following sections: The Good (highlighting a team strength), The Bat (highlighting a hitting star) and the Ugly (lowlighting a team shortcoming). It will also include the team Most Valuable Player and a final hitting and pitching statistical report.
Ivy Eagles
AABL East, 104-58, East & AABL Champions
The Good: What could be better than a College World Series sweep?
The Bat: Lou Gehrig powered his way to the East Golden Spikes Award.
The Ugly: Roy Thomas committed an astonishing 21 errors in center field.
Team MVP: Lou Gehrig, First Base. Gehrig (shown below) was good enough to win the East Golden Spikes; how can he not be Ivy's MVP?
