June ate the Legends alive. There wasn’t too much good about the month that ended with the Legends finishing the first half of the season with the worst record in the Sally League.
The Good
The Hitters
The Legends as a team 4th with 23 triples. They are also 4th in homers (63). They also have been caught stealing 22 times, good for the third lowest total in the league.
Matt Cusick has dropped in many categories but his OBP is still solid at .381 (9th)
Colin Delome’s 6 triples tie him for 3rd most. His slugging % is .513 (8th)
Brian Pellegrini is tied for 7th in HR (13)
Craig Corrado is tied for 6th most stolen bases (27). He has only been caught 3 times as well.
Pitchers
Not too much good going on here, except the the bad isn’t as bad as it was last month.
The Crowd
The Legends fans are still coming to the park. Their average attendance of 5308 is good for 3rd in the league.
The Bad:
The Hitters
The Legends are in the cellar in hits and average, second from the bottom in strike outs, and third worst in runs, and OBP. No individual Legend is in the bottom 10 of any category.
The Pitchers
Lexington’s pitchers share a 4.70 team ERA which is the next to worst in the league. They have surrendered the most hits and runs. However, they have only the 2nd worst amount of earned runs. They also have the worst WHIP in the league.
Leandro Cespedes has allowed 51 runs and 43 earned runs which both tie him for 9th most in the league. His 15 home runs surrendered tie him for second worst in the league.
Carlos Ladeuth’s 9 homers given up tie him for 9th most surrendered.
