Monday, October 8th , 1888
The marquee name in the Federal League this week is Gary Vankirk of the Pittsburgh Vulcans.

The hot-hitting 30-year-old shortstop put up a .455 average and .500 on-base percentage, piling up 10 hits in 22 at-bats, no home runs, 1 RBIs and 5 runs scored.

That kind of hitting got him the FL Player of the Week honors.

For the season, Vankirk is currently batting .213 with no home runs and 40 RBIs. In 136 games he has reached base at a .294 rate and scored 58 runs to date.
