Glens Falls pitching coach Jeff Keith calls starters Jeremy Hall and Brett Zamzow "inning-eaters" -- put them on the mound, and they'll be there for a while.
Case in point: Saturday's New York Collegiate Baseball League doubleheader against the Amsterdam Mohawks at East Field.
Hall went the distance in a three-hit shutout in the first game, a 3-0 victory for the Golden Eagles.
In the nightcap, Zamzow pitched most of a 2-1 victory to give Glens Falls (13-3) the sweep of the two seven-inning games.
Both Hall and Zamzow improved their records to 4-0.
"We haven't had to use our bullpen very often because those guys are inning-eaters," Keith said. "They're bullpen-savers. They can give us seven or eight quality innings every time. It would be a surprise to take them out after only a few innings. They can shorten a game for us."
