the pitcher of the day for Thursday is Waynesboro’s Zach Williamsen, from Nebraska-Omaha! (And this is assuming that the run he gave up was earned… which feels like a safe assumption since the Generals didn’t have an error last night.) Zach threw 5 innings and allowed 3 hits, the aforementioned 1 run, 0 walks, and struck out 8 to earn the win against Woodstock. His game score is 66. Zach has now thrown 7 shutout innings this season.
