Nick Osmun turned in nothing short of a gem on Monday: he struck out eight batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and three unearned) runs off four hits. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his third in a row with more than eight strikeouts. This season, Osmun has been strong no matter where he plays. On the mound, he has an ERA of 3.50 over 14 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat he has slashed 0.526/0.609/0.895 with 6 RBI.
Even though Osmun couldn't lead Stone Memorial over Upperman, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Osmun has dominated as far as strikeouts are concerned (he's averaged 5.3 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Upperman has only allowed two per game this season.
