The hardware continues to roll in for former South Carolina star pitcher Wil Crowe, who was named the Washington Nationals’ minor league co-pitcher of the year on Wednesday. He shared the award with an old SEC rival, Ben Braymer.
Crowe, who went 11–5 with a 3.40 ERA in 22 games in his second year of professional baseball, posted a perfect 11-0 record with the Nationals’ High-A affiliate, the Potomac Nationals, and was promoted to Double-A by the end of the season. He was also named the Carolina League Pitcher of the Year earlier this month for his performance in High-A.
