Another great and exciting news from the USA regarding the promotion to Double A from Advanced Single A of our young and promising left-handed pitcher Samuel Aldegheriraised in the San Martino Buon Albergo youth system, following in the footsteps of his older brother Mattia.

Samuel Aldegheri has had a positive season so far in Advanced Single A in New Jersey with the Jersey Shore Blue Claws, as his statistics demonstrate (6 wins and 5 losses in 13 starts with 68 innings pitched, 95 strikeouts and an excellent earned run average of 3.18).

In his last outing on the mound, the left-handed player from Verona earned his sixth win of the season, leading his team to a narrow 7-6 victory over the Wilmington Blue Rocks thanks to 5 good innings on the mound with 7 hits allowed and as many strikeouts. Now he’s moving to the Reading Fightin Phils, a team in the rear ranks of the Eastern League Northeast Division, where he’ll find Phil Cundari as pitching coach, a former pitcher in Italy with Fiorentina (1983-84) and in the technical staff of Milan (1990), speaker last January at the Convention organized in Rimini by FIBS.

Aldegheri, signed in 2019 by the Philadelphia Phillies, is continuing his growth path in the Minor Leagues with application and tenacity, rising in the consideration of the scouts of the Phillies organization and dreaming of landing in the MLB in the future.

A brief parenthesis also on our other young talents involved in the Minors starting with Alessandro Ercolani, also in Advanced Single A, who returned to the field last weekend in the narrow 11-10 defeat of his Greensboro Grasshoppers against the Aberdeen Ironbirds after a week on the injured list. Certainly more fortunate was the last outing on the mound for Rimini’s Ettore Giulianelli, decisive in his relief for the 6-0 victory of his Palm Beach Cardinals against the Jupiter Hammerheads.

Graduated in Pedagogy with an experimental thesis on ultras groups, he has been working since 1995 as a professional educator with mentally and physically disabled users. Passionate about sports in general and especially American sports, he has always had a dream of being a sports journalist. From baseball played in the courtyard of the condominium with a faded bat to games at the Gianni Falchi stadium with home runs by Roberto Bianchi and Pete Rovezzi, the step was short. Fortitude in his DNA, he has an irrational passion for “losers” or rather for “tormented” sports stories made up of a few highs and many lows.
