MWL's Top Starter is Williams Saturday, June 1st , 2058 Lake County Captains hurler Bob Williams was rewarded today with the Midwest League Pitcher of the Month honors. Williams, 24, realizes that pitching isn't all about how hard you can throw, it's about accuracy and about picking yourself up even when you've had a run of bad luck. "I'd like to say I don't give them anything to hit," said the Lake County starter, "but that's not true. Every pitcher gives up a long ball now and then. Usually there's at least one mistake in each at-bat, but you've got to battle through your mistakes and build some positive momentum. The rest will fall into place." Things did fall into place for Williams. In May he took the ball for 42.1 innings while notching 27 strikeouts, a 2.13 ERA and a 4-0 record. This season, Williams has compiled a 5-1 mark with a 2.58 ERA in 10 starts. |
