LeCroy has been impressed by Edwards

WASHINGTON – Matt LeCroy and Carl Edwards, Jr. are both natives of South Carolina who both spent several years as players in the Major Leaguers.

Perhaps more importantly, Rochester manager LeCroy is a former big-league catcher who knows a lot about pitchers – and he has been impressed by Edwards this year.

The right-hander has not allowed a hit in his last four outings and has not given up a run since April 8.

The reliever for the Red Wings has an ERA of 0.63 and a WHIP of 0.49 going into the first game of the series Tuesday in Worcester, Mass.
