Pedro Rios of the Makena Royals was voted the MABL Player of the Month for September 2019 after receiving a whopping 64% of the 143 votes cast in the online ballot. Enmanuel Yajure of the West Maui Brewers was the runner-up with 21% of the votes. During the second month of his rookie season, Rios hit .750 (9 for 12) with a .813 on-base percentage – both tops in the league over that span. Over four September games, he also had a .917 slugging percentage, 2 doubles, 4 BBs, 6 runs scored, and 5 RBIs.
In recognition of his achievement Rios will receive an MABL t-shirt. The September 2019 Player of the Month award is presented by Down the Hatch, located in the open-air courtyard of The Wharf in Lahaina, across from the Banyan Tree.
