    PA RBI AVG ONB SLUG Nobody was more excited for the journey up to Tier 1 than Cory, who somehow managed to keep the SweatSox upbeat during one of the worst seasons in NCBL history. Despite a 2 week stint on the DL, he was the only one in uniform for all 24 games, was one of the few SweatSox to hit above his career average in the toughest tier, and most importantly he promises to keep the SweatSox in Tier 1 if he wins this award!
