The Stickball League names our awards after our retired owners.

The McBain award is given to a franchise that breaks the single season number of wins . In season 47 Fargo won 135 games. Seattle led our league last year with 107 wins. So the McBain award still belongs to the thebigdogs.

The Dean award is given to the player who has overcome a 60 day disable listing the season before. This year's player is Pat Carter of the Wharf Rats. Season 54 saw Carter limited to 4 starts and 19 innings. In season 55 he overcame a forearm injury to make 34 starts and win 14 games in 185 innings.

Previous to this season we had a Branch Rickey award for the franchise that won the most total games at all levels. Starting this season the award will be named the kobylesky  award. kobylesky was an original owner in this league and the original blogger.

The kobylesky award this year goes to dyoungquist and the Boise franchise. Rogue One won 546 games. All his teams made the playoffs. He won the world series in all the minor league levels except the rookie league.
