SAN BRUNO, Calif. — Saint Mary’s baseball left-handed pitcher Ken Waldichuk was named the Rawlings West Coast Conference Pitcher of the Week Monday for the week of April 3-9 after throwing strong out of the bullpen to help the Gaels to two wins.
The freshman relief pitcher was nearly flawless on Saturday as he carried Saint Mary's (20-11, 5-4 WCC) to victory at San Francisco. The rookie entered the game in the 10th inning and proceeded to throw five straight shutout innings, keeping the score tied until the Gaels could win it in the 14th.
