Final Figures Show that
Kaz’s Club Worked Hard
• For the fourth consecutive year, slugging Kaz Suga has
won the batting honors of the Asahi Baseball team. Complete
figures for the season just ended show that Kaz powered out
a total of 58 hits out of 147 times at bat for a brilliant average
of .395. Besides his leading batting average, Kaz led the team
in the number of solen bases, total bases, base hits, and runs
batted in.
Finishing second in batting was Mike Maruno with a .313
average, made up of 42 hits out of 134 chances. Coming in a
surprise third was husky Koei Mitsui, who made a late drive
in the stretch to finish up with an average of .311. Yuki Uno
with .303 was the other .300 or over hitter.
Kaz batted in a total of 30 runs, and Mike and Frank
Shiraishi followed closely with 27 and 26 runs respectively.
Again, in the stolen bases department, fleet-footed Kaz
led the way with 30 pilfered bags. Frank stole 21 bases and
Mike finished with 18 stolen bases to his credit.
Kaz put together 14 doubles, 1 triple and 1 homer with 42
singles for 77 total bases to cop the honors in that department.Mike had 22 singles, 2 homers, and 18 doubles for 66 total
bases. Yuki, who banged out 29 singles, 1 homer, 2 triples
and 11 two-baggers, followed with 60.
Roy Yamamura was up to his usual tricks in drawing the
most number of walks, 33. Yuki drew 29 walks and Mike 25.
Having the dubious honor of striking out most frequently
was Eddie Nakamura, who whiffed 34 times. Ken Kutsukake
and Kaz Suga with 12 each, had the least number of K’s among
the regulars.
