Meet Your Beavers - That is if you can see him

Our third highlighted Beaver has been on the team since 1995. Since joining the squad, and adding to the Kirkwood contingency, he has primarily manned left field. Craig "Dupper" Dupske and his trademark baseball pants has been a steady offensive and defensive force for years. During his tenure he has amassed more hits, doubles and RBI than any other Beaver as well as topping the leaderboard in Sacrifice flies.

Not a game goes by that Dupper does not find himself sliding to catch a flyball. I am sure that he is doing this purposefully ala Jim Edmonds trying to make it look better - but whatever...he catches the ball, so who are we to judge.

Several years into his career Dupper was donned with another nickname; White Shadow. He earned this nickname as he always seemed to disappear after the games. His childhood home just a nine-iron shot from home plate at the old Kirkwood fields, you would hear the screen door slam shut at his parents house before you knew that he had once again pulled his disappearing act. The White Shadow was born.

In 2007 Dupper brought home the coveted MVB hitting .622 with 10 HR and 35 RBI. It was his first MVB and further established himself as one of the stars of the Beavers.

When not roaming in left field, Dupper can be found filling in at SS, 3B or even pitching. Offering a unique defensive alignment as he throws from the left side.

So come on out to the ballpark and watch for Dupper playing leftfield, you can't miss him. He'll be wearing his baseball pants with grass-stained knees and most likely sporting a Beavers jersey from the late 90's. He may not have fashion sense on the softball field, but does it really matter if when you turn around to see him he is already gone?
