					|   | Newell Wins Rookie of the Month Thursday, October 1st , 2048
 Few players his age have the consistency to put a solid month together, but East Haddam's Chris Newell carved up the opposition all September long and hauled off the Federation League Rookie of the Month award today as a result.
 
 He sizzled last month with a 4-1 mark, fanning 43 in 40 innings with an ERA of 2.25 in 6 starts.
 
 To date this season, Newell sports a 17-12 mark with a 4.07 ERA in 34 starting assignments. He has held the opposition to a .262 batting average and has 209 strikeouts in 210 innings.
