 | Franchi Collects Player of the Week Award Monday, April 23rd , 1917 Not every ball that came off Cookie Franchi's bat last week was a line drive or a towering shot -- it just seemed that way to the teams that played the Oakland Acorns. For his exploits, Franchi was named this week's West Coast Association Player of the Week award. The Oakland center fielder put up 14 hits in 26 at-bats and 1 home run while hitting .538 with 4 RBIs and 10 runs scored. This year, Franchi is batting .371 with 52 hits, 3 home runs, 17 RBIs, 12 walks, .418 OBP and has scored 26 runs. |   |
