A huge congratulations and giant “Hip, Hip, Hooray!” are in order for the New Arkton Bears. It’s an exciting day as they celebrate one of their newest players making a tremendous accomplishment.

“You know, it’s not every day that a player bats .400,” said the New Arkton manager, Will Hillard. “Hayes had a great season last year. But we had no idea he’d be this big of a deal. The great thing is, he’s only going to get better!”

Compared to many Royal Baseball League stars, Bucky could still be considered a rookie. He’s only in his second year as a professional player, but at the age of 21, Bucky Hayes has already proven himself as an elite performer.

This rare .411 batting average on the season has put the New Arkton Bears star into a special group of players.

“I’ve really never seen anything like this Hayes kid. He hits harder and runs faster than any player I’ve ever seen. And it’s like he doesn’t even break a sweat. Oh, the Bucky knows he’s one of the best. But he’s not arrogant in the least. The fans and his teammates love him. Who could ask for more?” Hillard commented to reporters.

It will be hard to improve on a campaign that saw the center fielder stroke 232 hits, with 26 doubles, 15 triples, 56 home runs, 182 RBIs, and 191 runs scored.

“I definitely never expected to hit .411 this year, that’s for sure,” Hayes said, “But I sure wouldn’t change it, not for the world. I’ve always dreamed of being a baseball player. Now I’m blessed o go down in history as one of the greats!”
