Volquez to Face Former Moeller Star Andrew Brackman In Louisville On Saturday

Edinson Volquez will attempt to regain his control on Saturday in Louisville against the Yankee farm team managed by Dave Miley.  The former Reds manager, who guides Scranton Wilkes Barre, will send former Moeller basketball and baseball star Andrew Brackman to the mound.

Brackman was on the 2005 Moeller state champion team.  He pitched 47.1 innings that season with a 7-0 record and an 0.60 ERA.  He was also the runner-up for Ohio Mr. Basketball.

Brackman attended the University of North Carolina as a basketball player. He was the Yankees first pick in 2007 (30th overall) and singed with them in August 2007.

The 6'10" righthander is 2-3 with a 6.59 ERA in eight starts for Scranton.
