Bruno back on Tuesday?

by Jay Jenkins on March 6th, 2011

Following Saturday’s doubleheader sweep of Cornell and Rider at Davenport Field, Bruno said his hamstring is feeling better.
How much better?
The sophomore hopes to play Tuesday against Georgetown, which would be helpful heading into a weekend series with ACC foe Clemson on the road.
Bruno started the first four games of the season at shortstop but injured his hamstring making a throw against VMI on Feb. 23.
Before being sidelined, Bruno was batting .213 (4 for 19) and had scored three runs. He played stellar defense in the field, registering just one error.
More importantly, Bruno in the lineup allowed the coaching staff to move sophomore Chris Taylor to other positions on the diamond. With questions about outfield play still a hot topic, this is a win-win situation.
... It is also worth noting that Clemson’s starting pitcher on Sunday against South Carolina, redshirt sophomore Kevin Brady, was pulled with an arm injury after four innings. Clemson noted that Bradley will be re-evaluated during the upcoming week. Brady was injured as a rookie in 2009 and had been the best Tiger starter to date, at least on paper.
