ROCHESTER, NY – Rochester Red Wings right-hander Jose Berrios has been named the International League Pitcher of the Week, the league office announced Monday.
Berrios started on Opening Day, April 8 at Syracuse and tossed 6.0 scoreless innings while surrendering three hits and one walk while striking out seven to earn the win. He was lifted after a lengthy top of the 7th inning as the Red Wings batted around and scored six runs. Berrios tossed 77 pitches, 48 for strikes.
