YB's Best Batter Picked
Wednesday, July 1st , 1953
It's perhaps an award he'll win many more times through his career, as at age 23 Rauno Laakso has a lot of baseball ahead of him.
But for now the young Rijeka Sailors star can enjoy the numbers he put up in June, which have garnered him the nod as the Yugoball Batter of the Month.
His breakout month featured a .341 average with 7 home runs, 21 RBIs and 17 runs scored.
During the current season Laakso is batting at a .291 clip with 10 home runs and 35 RBIs. He has played in 51 games and scored 33 times.
