Good luck to former Illinois hurlers John Anderson and Wes Braun who are playing overseas. They’ll be playing for the Hoboken Pioneers in the Belgian League. The website is in written in Dutch so good luck with that.

Former Illini catcher Adam Davis (left) is moving up too. He just got promoted to High A ball and will be playing for the Frederick Keys. Adam is already making a good impression going 5 for 12 in his first four games.
