scenario Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 http://www.milb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=2...sp&sid=l122 Winston-Salem first baseman Dan Black was named Carolina League MVP on Thursday as the circuit revealed its postseason All-Star team. Black, a 2011 MiLB.com White Sox Organization All-Star, is hitting .319 with 17 homers and 83 RBIs in 124 games for the Dash, duplicating much of his breakout season at Class A Kannapolis last summer. The switch-hitter leads the league in batting and ranks second in RBIs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
