Star of the Week Named in USA
Monday, May 3rd , 2049
In the twilight of his career, 37-year-old Ricardo Rivera of Duluth recaptured some of the old magic last week and came away with the USA Player of the Week Award.
"I've been playing since I was a kid," Rivera told reporters, "but you're never too old to feel the thrill of success."
Rivera outpaced the rest of the league's hitters last week, reeling off 6 hits in 8 at-bats, no home runs, and 3 RBIs to stake his claim to the award.
Rivera has a .361 average and a .395 on-base percentage for the year. He has picked up 13 hits, 1 home run and driven in 6 runs.
