Woodbridge, VA---Earlier today, the Carolina League announced that 2B Cole Freeman was named the Carolina League Player of the Week for the week of July 8th to July 14th. It is the first Player of the Week award for a Potomac player in 2019. In June, RHP Malvin Pena took home Pitcher of the Week for the P-Nats.
In six games over the past week, Freeman went 12-24 with two doubles, a triple, and five RBIs. After four games of at least three hits in his first 82 games with Potomac this season, Freeman recorded three games of at least three hits this past week, part of a week where he recorded four multi-hit games.
The most consistent hitter for Potomac through the team's first 91 games, Freeman enters Monday night's matchup with the Fayetteville Woodpeckers as the team leader in batting average (.314), runs scored (57), and stolen bases (23). The 24-year-old ranks among the top five in the Carolina League in each statistic, as he sits second on the circuit in batting average, second in runs scored, and third in stolen bases.
Named a 2019 Carolina League Mid-Season All-Star, this is Freeman's first Player of the Week Award as a professional. He was also named an MILB.com Organizational All-Star for his 2018 season.
The P-Nats are set to wrap up a three-game series this evening vs. the Fayetteville Woodpeckers (Houston Astros). With just about two months remaining in the 2019 Carolina League regular season, Potomac sits 5.0 games back of the Salem Red Sox (Boston Red Sox) for a playoff spot in the Northern Division. First pitch on Monday night vs. Fayetteville is scheduled for 7:00pm.
