John Roland was dynamite on Tuesday, not allowing a single earned run while striking out eight over five innings pitched. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with more than five strikeouts. For the season, Roland has an ERA of 1.52 over 32.3 innings pitched.
Roland's strong effort led Shaw over Westover and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. Roland has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 0.7 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Westover has only allowed 3.2 per game this season.
