Binghamton Rumble Ponies starter Corey Oswalt has been named the Eastern League Pitcher of the Week. Oswalt tossed a two-hit shutout against the Trenton Thunder on Wednesday, August 2. After allowing the first two hitters to reach, Oswalt retired the final 20 batters he faced to secure a seven-inning complete game, his first career wire-to-wire victory.
Oswalt joins PJ Conlon, Champ Stuart and Chris Flexen as Rumble Ponies that have received league honors this season.
Ozzie rocks.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if biting the heads off chickens could hasten a promotion?
ReplyDeleteMaybe but just so he doesn't kneel for the National Anthem.
ReplyDeleteOswalt has been on of late: drop one short start in early July (2 innings, 3 runs), and he has thrown 44 innings since June 22 and allowed just 4 earned runs, 32 hits, 12 walks, 38 Ks - he is clearly on the upswing.
ReplyDeleteI read another blog that said Marcos Molina was at 89-91 in his last start - I hope that is not his new normal.
Oswald pitched 6.2 innings of shutout ball last night. He wants to join Flexen in Sept in Queens. Flexen gave up 3 runs but when he left with a man on first and 2 outs in the 6th, Goeddel allowed a run scoring double for the Third Run.
