Austin Peay State University Baseball’s Tyler Rogers One of the Best Closers in the Game
May 14, 2013 |
Clarksville, TN - The first thing you’re likely to notice about Tyler Rogers is his throwing motion. The Govs closer comes set, then dips and fires, submarine-style, to the plate.

It’s small wonder that he’s developed into one of the all-time greatest closers in OVC history.
