Mancelona's Starter Receives SA Pitching Award Monday, June 1st, 2043 The USSL Single A Pitcher of the Month honor has been given to Al Maxwell of Mancelona for a superlative month. "I actually never wanted to be a pitcher," Maxwell told reporters when asked who he credits for his pitching ability. "I was an outfielder until high school and on the third day of tryouts my coach came up and said, 'Son you couldn't hit a lick even if we put it on a tee for ya.' Well, that ticked me off, so I decided if I couldn't hit I wanted to make sure no one else could either and so here I am." It all turned out for the best as the Mancelona starter notched a 3-0 record with a 0.57 ERA last month. He made 0 starts and struck out 16 in 15.2 innings. |
