FAMU pitcher Brandon Fleming continues to impress on the mound

TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Florida A&M baseball coach Jamey Shouppe might have had trouble deciding which of his pitchers to put in the starting rotation early in the season, but he's never had to worry about one of his relievers.

Junior pitcher Brandon Fleming leads the Rattlers (23-23) with seven wins and was named the MEAC tournament's Most Outstanding Player after pitching 52/3 innings in Florida A&M's 7-4 win over Savannah State.

The Rattlers were down 4-3 when Fleming entered the game. He allowed just three hits and one run while striking out four, securing the win for the team in the first game of the tournament.

The way Fleming sees it, he was just doing his job.

"Our pitching staff has been great all year and we've had a great bullpen all year," Fleming said.
