April's MVP Awards Handed Out

NEW YORK, NY. May 1, 1916 - The United League scribes have picked April's MVP of the Month and have given the trophy to Theo Murrell of Washington. He was devastating on the mound last month with a standout 7-1 mark.

The Grays star hurler made 7 starts with a 1.31 ERA and surrendered 51 hits in 68.2 innings. He struck out 38 and walked 16.

When Orson Sanford stepped up to the plate in April, he did it with confidence and today he was honored with the Columbia League MVP of the Month award.

The young Chicago catcher posted a .400 batting average with no home runs, 20 RBIs and scored 9 runs. Sanford also worked pitchers for 5 walks to post a .440 on-base percentage.
