Creswell “The Boomer” Pratt
Fred “Papa” Smith
Jayson “Pegs” Moxey
Hold of the Bahamas Home record of 18 in a season
Creswll terrorize local baseball pitchers, when the ball
left his bat, there was no doubt that it was a home run.
Creswell Pratt, was later signed by Cincinnati Reds to
a Minor League Contract.
Pegs not only carried a big stick to the plate, but he also had plenty
speed, and you feared his big bat that could hit you for the extra
bases, and he can also bunt his way on, once pegs was on first he
was a treat to steal any base he wanted, he also processed a cannon
for a arm from the outfield.
Papa Smith always carried his big stick to the plate, with his
ability to hit of the fences and gap to gap with regularity, you
were happy some of the ball he hit stayed in the park, Papa didn’t
process the speed like most, so you were happy when he kept the
ball in the park, most of his home runs were no doubters, he also
had a good arm from the outfield.

When Dencil came to the plate to hit, you knew he had
one thing on his mind, how far he was going to hit the
baseball, Joe Blacks love his strike, and made the most
out out of every at bat.
