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.
The lanky righty combines his style – to a right-handed batter, it looks as though the ball leaves Rogers’ hand behind the batters’ back – with low-90s heat and a slider that borders on unhittable some days. It’s small wonder that he’s developed into one of the all-time greatest closers in OVC history.
