Braveheart Memorial Baseball League

Around the Horn Monkeys Win, Monkeys Win! The inaugural 1998 BraMBLe season has at last reached its close, with a result that is surprising to no one. The Proudest Monkeys have captured first place with an overall point total of 43.5, twelve points better than their closest pursuer, the Sackers of Peaceful Cities. The Monkeys won or shared the lead in six categories, three pitching and three hitting, a true testament to their well-rounded team. From all of us at the Proudest Monkeys website, we thank everyone for participating this year, and we hope to have you all back again soon. Company, Anyone?

For this accomplishment, Sammy Sosa is our twenty-third and final BraMBLe Player of the Week. [Return to Top]
