Chucky Flinder

## About

Chucky Flinder is a generic boy with brown curly hair and tan skin. His main calling card in the BBL has been his pitching.

Chucky is a near-clone of Sidney Webber, and a full clone of Esther French. His only notable differences from Sidney are slightly less speed and a slightly better heat pitch.

## Scouting Reports

### Backyard Baseball 2001 and 2003

Chucky Flinder

Chucky doesn't particularly excel at anything, but he does have some usefulness in the league. His bat is weak, at just 34/100 batting power, but 62 contact. His speed is right around average, at 52. In the field, he has a nice arm at 65 throwing power but his 18 glove can lead to some drops. Chucky is probably most comfortable on the mound, where his 94 stamina allows him to pitch for a long while, and his two best pitches are the heat and left hook.

## League History

### BBL

#### Season 3

Generics were made widely available in Season 3, and Chucky joined the BBL with the 181st pick in the 8th round by coach Eauxps I. Fourgott of the Melonheads. Despite pro pitcher Brad Radke also on the team, coach Eauxps decided to use Chucky on the mound, and he found great success. Chucky pitched more than a full season's worth of innings due to some extra inning games, finishing with a 0.84 ERA and 105 strikeouts. Chucky's season was impressive enough to earn him the honors of the Ace Wilson Award.

#### Season 4

Coach Eauxps I. Fourgott reunited with Chucky on the Braves after drafting him with the very last pick, number 216 overall. Chucky was once again the starting pitcher over a pro pitcher, this time Randy Johnson. He was unable to replicate his Season 3 success, with his ERA almost doubling, but he still recorded more than one strikeout per inning.

#### Season 5

With a reputation as a solid pitcher, Chucky's draft stock increased, and he was taken 136th overall in the 7th round by coach T-Boz of the Devil Rays. For the first time, he did not lead his team in innings pitched, but he was part of the pitching rotation.

#### Season 6

Coach T-Boz and Chucky teamed up again on the Devil Rays after he was drafted 186th overall in the 8th round. Once again, Chucky wasn't the main pitcher, but provided a few innings of work on the mound. At the plate, Chucky had a season to forget, recording no extra base hits, one RBI, and two runs.

#### Season 7

Chucky was drafted 181st overall in the 8th round by coach shrewsbury91 of the Reds. He worked most of the pitching, splitting time almost evenly with Earl Abbot. He had an impressive strikeout rate, striking out 56 batters in 43 2/3 innings.

#### Season 8

Chucky was drafted 181st overall for the second straight season, by coach elchrisblanco of the Fishes, but Chucky was traded for his clone Esther French so he could reunited with old coach Eauxps I. Fourgott on the Royals. Chucky had his best season since he was previously on Eauxps' team. He struck out 104 batters in 74 2/3 innings of work, and at the plate he even hit multiple home runs for the first time in his career.

#### Season 10

##### 2003

Chucky did not play in Season 9 or the 2001 league of Season 10, but he was taken in the 2003 league. Coach SilverBullet102 of the Orioles picked up Chucky as an undrafted free agent, making him eligible to use power-ups. In part due to his power-up usage, Chucky set career highs in home runs (3) and batting average (0.450).

## Trivia

* Chucky's career high for strikeouts in a game is 12, which he accomplished once in Season 3 and again in Season 8.
