TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Florida A&M’s bullpen troubles might just be a thing of the past.During the Rattlers’ 4-3 opening day victory over Marshall in front of 213 fans Friday at Moore-Kittles Field, FAMU’s three relief pitchers combined to give up one run and one hit while striking out five Herd batters.
“(Pitching coach) Bryan Henry had everything lined up perfectly for our pitchers,” FAMU head coach Jamey Shouppe said.
“We had a good preseason for our pitchers. We put them through a lot of situations and they’ve come through. Our offense is a little bit better this year and that makes our pitching better because they face our guys during the scrimmage.”
Friday’s game was FAMU’s first opening day victory since a 5-2 win over Mississippi Valley on Feb. 17, 2012.
