Grossfeld Grabs NYP Top Pitcher Trophy
Monday, July 1st , 2047
The Connecticut Tigers celebrated today after the news filtered through the clubhouse that Alan Grossfeld had been selected as June's McNamara Division Pitcher of the Month. Grossfeld's zest for the game has been a frequent topic on the sports pages and his numbers of late have made his fans even more enthusiastic.
"Our coaching staff really helps me prepare well," Grossfeld said, "and the fans feed off good pitching. Your pitches just seem to have that extra pop to them when the fans are behind you and you feel confident you can get outs."
Grossfeld tossed 34.2 innings last month, holding opponents to a .184 average while striking out 34 batters. In 5 starting assignments he came away with a 4-1 record, putting together an ERA of 2.08.
This year Grossfeld has compiled a 7-6 record with a 3.07 ERA.
