Yohan Flande improves to 5-0 on the season after a complete game shutout against the Portland Sea Dogs.
Yohan Flande has been absolutely dominant to start the year for Double-A New Britian. Saturday afternoon, Flande threw a one-hit complete game shutout against the Portland Sea Dogs. He threw 70 of his 98 pitches for strikes and his effort dropped his ERA to 1.36. He's now 5-0 to start the year. Yes, he is 29 and pitching against Double-A hitters, but it's still encouraging to see, and it's possible he'll be up in the big league bullpen before the season ends.
