MANCHESTER, N.H. – First baseman Spencer Horwitz of the New Hampshire Fisher Cats, the Double-A affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays, was named Eastern League Player of the Week. Horwitz had hits in all six games of the road series at Binghamton, including a pair of home runs.
Horwitz homered in the series opener Wednesday and again Saturday. He also tallied three doubles and six walks, while going 9-for-20 at the plate. Horwitz slashed .450/.577/.900 in the six-game set with four RBIs and four runs scored.
