Gavin Murdoch

After a distinguished career with the Skiba's softball squad, in which Gavin displayed extroidinary speed and clutch hitting, he joined the Post 701ers in 1999 and brought his winning attitude to a team looking for veteran leadership.

The owner of a lifetime .340 average and the Post career leader in strikeout per at bat ratio (one strikeout per 47 at bats), Gavin has seen a reduced role in recent years. He has, however, put together back to back .400 years when he hit .441 in 1999 and a career best .519 in 2000 with an on base average of .576 as he led the team in both catagories.

Gavin filled in at second base during the 2005 season opener and made all the plays during a 14-10 loss to Eden's Deli. Despite going 0 for 3, Gavin reached on an error and hit a rocket in the fifth to right field that was caught and walked in the seventh.

LAST OUT AWARD: GAVIN MURDOCH

Starting a game for the first time in three years, veteran Gavin Murdoch performed admirably going 2 for 2 with 3 rbis before being forced to leave the game with an injury. In the 17-3 thumping of Camero, Gavin manned the scorebook until, with two out in the bottom of the sixth he was asked by Last Out Award Winner for the previous two games Ray Fyfe to pinch hit. The Fyfe strategy paid off. Murdoch lined to second saving his buddy Ray from delivering the beer for game 10. The bad news: Gavin is the Beer Boy vs The Old Timers!
