Bohn of Guac Boys Named Pabst Blue Ribbon Wiffler of the Week

18 Aug

Guac Boys have been at or near the top of the EWL standings throughout the 2024 season, and Bohn’s performance on the mound and at the plate has been the most consistent factor as the franchise makes a push for their first ever Wiffle Series title. After an impressive first half, Guac Boys struggled out of the gate in the second half, losing five straight. They snapped the losing streak in week 8, thanks in large part to a big week by Bohn, and as a result, he was voted Wiffler of the Week.

In a 10-7 loss to Cheap Goats, Bohn went 3-for-5 with a single, two home runs, three runs scored, and two RBI.

In an 15-9 win over Jack Shack that snapped Guac Boys’ losing streak, he had a monster game, going 6-for-7 with a single, a double, four home runs, five runs scored, and six RBI.

In total, Bohn went 9-for-12 with two singles, a double, six home runs, eight runs scored, and eight RBI.

This is the second time this season (week 4) and the second time in Bohn’s career that he has been voted Wiffler of the Week.
