Jim Johnson

Player of the Week: Johnson of the Triangles

Today the Carolina League announced the Player of the Week Award. This week's honoree is Raleigh-Durham's talented shortstop Jim Johnson. When he steps into the batter's box, it's usually a bad omen for pitchers.

For the week Johnson batted .522 (12-for-23) with 1 home run and 12 RBIs.

In 49 games this season, Johnson has batted at a .296 pace with 53 hits and 1 home run.
