Notes

  • Adam Zipko owns this list- he has (if my math is correct) 20% more saves than second-place Chris Dennis.
  • New Market, Front Royal and Winchester have three each; Waynesboro, Staunton, Covington and Harrisonburg have two; Fauquier, Strasburg, and Woodstock have one. Charlottesville and Purcellville are shut out.
  • Two of these guys have pitched in the major leagues- Dickson and Thornburg.
  • Six have pitched in the minor leagues- Dennis, Lutz, Griffith, Hernandez, Fessler, and Christensen.
  • One more pitched in Indy Ball- Stanley. The rest have not pitched in pro ball.
