MCWS Practice Day Notebook: Aschenbeck's accolade, Saturday's starter & more

OMAHA, Neb. — There was never a doubt.

A week ago, when Texas A&M reliever Evan Aschenbeck was named a finalist for the NCBWA Stopper of the Year Award, there was no question who the rightful winner should be.

The answer became clear at a Friday morning press conference at Charles Schwab Field Omaha.

“I just want to thank everybody that has been a part of this,” Aschenbeck said as he accepted the trophy.
