Kelso Tabbed as August's Starter of the Month
Wednesday, September 1st , 2055
The United States Premier League Pitcher of the Month honor has been given to Bob Kelso of Seattle for a superlative month.
"I actually never wanted to be a pitcher," Kelso 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 Seattle starter notched a 4-0 record with a 1.55 ERA last month. He made 4 starts and struck out 35 in 29 innings.
In 18 starts this season Kelso has fashioned a 9-6 record and a 3.21 ERA.
