Alex Kranzler Pronunciation

 

Head coach Tim Corbin on Kranzler: “Kranz is very serious about everything that he does. He is a tremendous student in the classroom, but he also is a student of pitching. He enjoys the craft, and he is willing to invest any amount of time to be good. He is a highly motivated young man with a tremendous motor. He started to gain more time on the mound towards the end of last year, then went off and pitched in the Cape. Alex will impact our pitching staff this year. I enjoy watching him compete.”
