Toledo Mud Hens Hurler AC's Premier Pitcher Saturday, October 13th, 2018 What does it take to win the Outstanding Pitcher Award? Just ask Seth Lugo of the Toledo Mud Hens -- the latest American Conference Outstanding Pitcher Award winner. "My dad always told me to dream big and dream always," he said. "It's not like I shoot for the Outstanding Pitcher Award," he said. "I have big aspirations for what I want to do in this game and what I want to achieve in a long career." The Mud Hens pitching ace made some of his dreams come true this year, winning 12 games and losing only 6. In 27 starts, Lugo registered a 3.13 ERA and limited other clubs to a .237 batting average. He fanned 147 in 158.1 innings and issued 38 walks. He received 27 first place votes out of a possible 30. Rob Zastryzny of the Charlotte Knights finished second in voting with 2 first place votes, while Trevor Clifton of the Buffalo Bisons finished third.
