Did Carson Fulmer Pitch With The Flu Last Night?

Apparently, yes.

We all saw an exemplary Carson Fulmer start last night. The Florida Flamethrower went 7 and 2/3 IP of shutout ball, allowing only 2 hits, 2 walks, and hitting two batters in 118 pitches of intense effort. Every single one of those pitches was needed, as UVA sophomore RHP Connor Jones matched him on the scoreboard until Vandy broke through with a two run double by Will "Youth Hockey" Toffey. Fulmer kept his fastball at 95mph until the top of the 8th, exhibiting darting movement and impressive control - mainly impressive because the strike zone kept moving, but I digress - of all pitches, especially his spike curve which accounted for the bulk of his 8 Ks.
