Italiano continues his impressive start to the 2008 season, after suffering from
a torn labrum in 2006 and a skull fracture from a line drive in 2007, this season
seems to be shaping up as him finally putting everything together. Though he
supposedly has lost a bit on his fastball he can still crank it up to 95mph.
Italiano threw 5 shutout innings, but in a losing effort as the Cougs were shut out
7-zip falling to Dayton. The only offensive highlight was 2 hits from Keough (CF).
