Ryan Hawks (W, 2-0) tossed 7.1 strong innings for his second win in as many weeks, dominating the Falcons in a game that took just 1 hour and 46 minutes. This was the fastest 9 inning game on record for Louisville since at least 2000. Hawks tallied 8 strikeouts, allowing 4 hits, and 1 unearned run. He did not walk a single batter.
In this young season, Greg Farone (S, 1) looks like he is going to be one of the more reliable arms in the bullpen. He twirled the final 1.2 innings, striking out 3 batters, not allowing a hit, run, or walk.
