John Devine was dynamite on Friday, keeping things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out nine over five innings pitched. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his seventh in a row with more than five innings. On the season, Devine has an ERA of .33 over 43 innings pitched.
Devine's strong effort led Cranston East over Cranston West and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. Devine has dominated as far as strikeouts are concerned (he's averaged 7.4 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Cranston West has only allowed 3.41 per game this season.
