Minor League News
Which International League hurler dominated in the month of May?
According to the voters who decide the International League Pitcher of the Month award, it was Dan Carrig of the Omaha Storm Chasers.
He put together a record of 5-0 with an ERA of 1.36 in 5 starting assignments. In addition, he struck out 48 in 33 innings.
To date this season, Carrig has a record of 8 wins and 1 loss and a 2.87 ERA. He has appeared in 11 games and struck out 90 in 69 innings.
When Ben Lane takes the mound, a Kansas City (ACL) victory is usually the result. At least that's the way it was in May.
He excelled with a 3-1 mark and a 2.84 ERA in 5 starts, tossed 25.1 innings, fanned 28 and held opposing batters to a .212 average.
That's why the Royals starter was honored today as the Pitcher of the Month by the Arizona Complex League.
