After wakeup call, Wang shows Crew resurgence

MIAMI -- Was it the stern talk from his manager and pitching coach that turned Wei-Chung Wang's season around? Or was it the shock of being removed from the Brewers' 40-man roster?

Whatever the inspiration, the 23-year-old left-hander has re-asserted himself as a Brewers pitching prospect. Since being outrighted from the roster in mid-June, Wang owns a 1.59 ERA and .226 average against in 14 starts, the first 13 at advanced Class A Brevard County and the last on Sunday at Triple-A Colorado Springs. Wang scattered four hits and did not walk a batter while striking out five over six scoreless innings for the SkySox following a promotion.
