It’s been a little while since we looked at the league record book— well, the record book since the 2004 season, anyway.
Here is the latest installment- total bases!
1 | Jimmy Yezzo | Winchester | 2012 | 148 |
2 | Joseph Odom | Winchester | 2012 | 139 |
3 | Jon Love | Front Royal | 2004 | 125 |
Tyler Kuhn | Luray | 2006 | 125 | |
5 | Steve McQuail | Front Royal | 2009 | 119 |
Bradley Picha | Winchester | 2012 | 119 | |
7 | Jonathan Griffin | Luray | 2010 | 117 |
8 | Collin Cowgill | Covington | 2005 | 116 |
9 | Leo Rojas | Winchester | 2012 | 115 |
10 | Julian Ridings | Waynesboro | 2012 | 113 |
A couple interesting things about this one. First of all, there are FOUR members of the 2012 Winchester Royals on here- Yezzo, Odom, Picha, and Rojas. What a high powered team!
Also, most of the ten have played pro ball. Yezzo, Odom, Kuhn, McQuail, Griffin, Cowgill, and Ridings have all made a living (for a while, anyway) playing baseball. Collin Cowgill is the only major leaguer on the list, so, understandably, he’s made the most (his salary was $995,000 in 2015).
