I was shocked Thursday night when my special assistant Sara informed me that Virginia lefty Danny Hultzen had lost in games against Wright State and Duke. Had the jnuior pitched in just five games in his career it would have made sense.
Danny pitches in five a month, or so it seems, grabbing the ball every single Friday.
He is something special, something he showcased in the season opener.
With temperatures soaring at Auburn, Hultzen threw 97 pitches and showed why he was the ACC Pitcher of the Year. The southpaw gave up three hits and walked a batter in an epic performance considering it felt like a preseason game.
Hultzen is a special weapon, one that Brian O’Connor can use at the plate. Virginia is lucky.
