Reynoso throws first win for Pelicans

Six strong frames

---

It looks like 2003 Wood River High School graduate Ryne Reynoso, 23, might be settling into a groove as a starting pitcher for the Myrtle Beach (S.C.) Pelicans of Class A Advanced Carolina League.

Reynoso, in his fourth start for the Atlanta Braves' farm team, earned his first professional victory as a starting pitcher with a 5-2 home victory over the Lynchburg Hillcats Tuesday night at BB&T Coastal Field in Myrtle Beach, S.C.

The Pelicans Web site said, "Pelicans starter Ryne Reynoso was tremendous in six innings of duty to earn his first win. The converted outfielder from his college days at Boston College scattered just five hits throughout his outing and struck out four, while not surrendering a single free pass."

After getting roughed up in his first two starts, the 6-2, 215-pound righthander from Bellevue has yielded only one earned run in his last 11 innings. He has been particularly effective against right-handed batters, holding them to a .229 average. On the season Reynoso is 1-1, with a 4.50 ERA. In 18 innings, he has allowed 18 hits and 9 earned runs, but has 22 strikeouts and only 5 walks.
