The 2026 Best Arm Award goes to Cody Farnham! 🏆

Whether he’s reeling in trophy bass on the water or setting down hitters at the plate, Cody was completely unhittable on the mound this season. Pitching for the Sharks, he racked up a league-leading 79 strikeouts—averaging a ridiculous 18 K/9 (including a monster 20-strikeout game)—while keeping his ERA at a microscopic 0.94.

Opposing batters couldn't catch a break... or a hook. Congratulations, Cody! 🎣⚾️

And, congratulations to all the award nominees

Legend status: UNLOCKED. 🏆 Huge congratulations to Fred Schartz, winner of this season’s Living Legend Award! Coach Fred was always ready to lace 'em up and play when the Natives needed an extra man. Not only did he step up, he put up—rocking a .538 OBP at age 78! Hat's off to you, Fred! 🧢⚡

Also congrats to all the Living Legend award nominees. This award considers both the players performance and age to determine who had the most impressive season. Great season for all nominees!

Playoff week...
Who will take the title?

Settling a bench debate once and for all: Are left-handed swings objectively better, or do lefties just get extra points for aesthetics?

Science says lefties are closer to first base, but our eyes say the follow-through just hits different. Tag the left-handed hitter on your team with the smoothest stroke (or the righty who thinks they look just as good).

What's not up for debate is Angel's Angel Garcia swing

Nick put this gapper for a ride on to a near bases clearing double. He used to be known for defense.. now don't sleep on the Natives manager and self proclaimed team motivator... Avsec and the Natives looking to finish the season strong.
