In June, Len Janke tore through the Eastern Association like a seasoned veteran -- quite impressive for a player only 23 years old.
The young Albany starter posted a 8-2 mark and an ERA of 2.58 to earn the Pitcher of the Month award. In 94.1 innings he collected 8 strikeouts while limiting the opposition to a .251 average.
This year in 33 starts, Janke has recorded 18 wins and absorbed 9 losses. He has pitched 230.1 innings, allowed 243 hits, struck out 18 and has a 2.38 ERA.

 | Sunday, June 30th, 1872: 5-Hit Barrage by Haw
Quinn Haw really sizzled at the plate today. In a game played at Athletic Ballpark, the Albany center fielder blistered the Philadelphia Red Stockings for 5 hits in 6 at-bats to pace his club to a 14-9 victory.
"Haw was too tough to get out today," the Red Stockings skipper said in his postgame interview. "No matter what we threw him, he hit it. And he hit some good pitches, too."
Q. Haw grounded out in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, singled in the 5th, singled in the 7th and singled in the 8th.
In the 1872 campaign Haw has hit at a .328 clip with 59 RBIs, 2 home runs and 80 runs scored.
