Carter Earns NL Top Pitcher Trophy Wednesday, September 1st , 2055 The Chisago Lakes Lakers celebrated today after the news filtered through the clubhouse that Tyrone Carter had been selected as August's National League Pitcher of the Month. Carter'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," Carter 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." Carter tossed 44.1 innings last month, holding opponents to a .204 average while striking out 43 batters. In 6 starting assignments he came away with a 3-1 record, putting together an ERA of 1.02. This season, Carter has registered 7 wins and 6 losses in 20 starts with a 4.30 ERA. |
