Joey’s late-career resurgence continued in week 8, as he kept up the record-breaking pace he has maintained throughout the 2023 season, punishing opposing hitters with a barrage of extra-base hits. He delivered a record-breaking performance as Cheap Goats exploded for the most dominant offensive performance of the 2023 season, and he continued to swat balls over the left field fence. He led Cheap Goats to a split in week 8, holding tight with the Guac Boys in the chase for second place in the season standings, and after another strong week at the plate and in the field, he was voted Wiffler of the week for the second time this season.
In a 24-9 win over Jack Shack, Joey had a career game, going 9-for-10 with six doubles, one triple, two home runs, seven runs scored, and six RBI, breaking the single-game EWL record for doubles (5) that was previously held by Tim of Ham Slams, Tom W of Shady Characters, and Brett of Cheap Goats.
In a 9-7 loss to the Guac Boys, he went 3-for-6 with a double, two home runs, three runs scored, and four RBI.
In total, Joey went 12-for-16 with seven doubles, four home runs, ten runs scored, and ten RBI in week 8.
This is the sixteenth time in Joey’s career that he has been voted Wiffler of the Week, and the second time in three weeks, after being named Wiffler of the Week for week 6 of the 2023 season.
