Charleston Starter Wins July's Pitcher Award Wednesday, August 1st , 2063 The Charleston Battery celebrated today after the news filtered through the clubhouse that Rush Moore had been selected as July's Menard's Third League Pitcher of the Month. Moore'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," Moore 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." Moore tossed 28.1 innings last month, holding opponents to a .175 average while striking out 21 batters. In 4 starting assignments he came away with a 4-0 record, putting together an ERA of 0.32. This year, Moore has registered 4 wins and 2 losses in 7 starts with a 1.93 ERA while registering 31 strikeouts and 18 walks in 46.2 innings. |
