Kamuliva Gets ESPC #1 Pitcher Trophy Sunday, October 1st , 2017 The New York Knights owe Abdel-Alim Kamuliva a lot for his performance this past month. One of the league's most dominant starters in September, Kamuliva tore up the opposition with a fine 5-0 mark on his way to the Eastern Semi-Pro Circuit Pitcher of the Month award. "When you're pitching this well," analyzed Kamuliva, "it's a lot easier to come to the park. I don't judge my performance by the stats, I judge it -- the team judges it -- by the score of the game. I could say I'm tossing electric stuff right now and that would go over big. But if I toss that same stuff -- exact same pitch selection and location -- and they bang me around tomorrow, I was awful. That's the way baseball is." It was Kamuliva who did the banging in September as he tossed up 30 strikeouts in 33 innings, holding opponents to a .233 average and posting a 3.00 ERA. Kamuliva has started 24 times this year, pitched 156 innings, fanned 149 batters and walked 75. His current record is 15 wins and 6 losses with a 3.40 ERA. |
