After picking up a win in an opening round upset against Miami , Seattle Mariners 1st Round Pick (20th Overall) Joshua Fields closed out Stanford on Monday night to help Georgia advance to 2-0 in the 2008 College World Series.
Fields who was hitting as high as 97 on the gun, struggled a little with control as he is found himself in a jam with one out in the 9th. Fields, who commentator Mike Patrick reffered to as “good wild” because he intimidates batters with his velocity, hit a batter and then walked the next. After a mound visit, he settled down to force a double play to pick up his 17th save in 17 chances.
Last week Fields took home 1st team All-American honors, as well as National Stopper of the year earlier in the month for the 2008 season.
