After leading his Amsterdam Mohawks to the 2009 New York Collegiate Baseball League title, Kentucky sophomore Braden Kapteyn was named NYCBL Player of the Year and Playoff Most Valuable Player, it was announced.
Kapteyn, a 6-foot-4, 210-pounder, owned the NYCBL throughout the summer, both offensively and on the mound as the top pitcher in the league. The Lansing, Ill., native started 37 games, posting a .319 batting average (46-for-144), leading the team in hits (46) and home runs (four). Kapteyn added eight doubles, 24 RBI and five stolen bases. On the mound, Kapteyn was a workhorse, starting seven games and appearing in eight, totaling a 4-1 record and a 2.47 ERA. The right-hander led the league with 72 strikeouts in 47.1 innings, allowing only 23 hits and 25 walks, with opponents hitting for a .145 average. Kapteyn was also named a NYCBL all-star, getting the starting assignment on the mound for the mid-summer tilt.
