AARON STRAUSBAUGH
MAD RIVER MACHINE

Strausbaugh becomes the Machine's 2nd Rookie of the Year award winner, following Matt Clark's selection in 2016. The Dublin Scioto product was a huge pickup for the Mad River club as he was key to the Machine's resurgence in the MVABL standings. Aaron just missed out on the batting title, but led his team with a .518 batting average, and finished first on his team with 22 runs, 29 hits, 20 RBIs, and 10 doubles. He is the 4th player in Machine history with a double-digit tally in doubles.
