| Breaking News |  | Wednesday, October 2nd, 2030: Bad News for Bees, Erickson Injured
After the end of today's game between Queens and Santa Cruz, Joseph Erickson skipped the clubhouse and headed straight for the doctor's office. After he was removed from the game as a precaution after throwing a pitch, the Bees had their worst fears confirmed when it turned out to be more serious. The closer will miss at least 4 weeks with a hyperextended elbow.
In the 2030 season Erickson has worked 80 innings in 59 relief appearances and earned 7 saves. He has dished out 75 strikeouts and walked 20 with a 6-2 mark and a 2.70 ERA.

 | Wednesday, September 18th, 2030: 5-6 Day for Shewmaker!
Stephen Shewmaker told the press after his 5-hit day, "Every batter wants to have a quality at-bat every time he steps up to the plate. He wants to hit the ball hard."
Well, that's just what Shewmaker of the Norwich Mustardmen did against the Queens Bees. He went to the plate 6 times and 5 times he delivered base hits, much to the chagrin of the Bees, who suffered a 10-9 defeat.
"Not much that I can say," offered the losing manager, "he just hammered the heck out of us."
S. Shewmaker hit a two-run home run off J. Ensign in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, singled in the 6th, grounded out in the 7th, singled in the 9th and hit a solo-shot off B. Cullison in the 10th.
This season Shewmaker has hit at a .224 clip with 61 RBIs, 18 home runs and 56 runs scored. He has played in 138 games.
