The starting rotation has done a tremendous job on the mound this season, while the bullpen has been right up there when it comes to consistency pitching 33 innings in 29 innings while allowing only 10 earned runs. Junior reliever
Luke Mould is shutting down opposing lineups during the most crucial point of the game with a team-high five saves and leading the way with seven appearances.
