One confirmation, many departures and three new arrivals. San Marino’s Afi pitching mound has radically changed as it has officially begun preparations for next season. The only survivor is Luca Di Raffaele, now an almost veteran in a blue and white jacket. And let’s start with the news. The first is Francesco Pomponi, a 22-year-old with great hopes, from the Oltretorrente Parma school, Michele’s younger brother already appreciated on the Parma mountain. “I can’t wait to get to know the whole group in this new adventure” said the young Emilian pitcher who has already gained experience in Serie A both in “his” Oltretorrente and in Parma Clima.

Pomponi’s age is Brian Severino, he also made his debut in Serie A in a Parma team, Crocetta, and then moved to Codogno where he showed off his tendency to leave his opponents off the plate as demonstrated by his 95 strike-outs in his 66 snaps thrown. “Being called up by a team like San Marino is a great satisfaction, I believe it will be a very important season for me where I can learn a lot from players with great experience”.

Specialist in rescues is Marco Pascoli, the third reinforcement of the Italian white-blue mountain. The 29-year-old pitcher comes from the Turin Grizzlies where he played for the last three seasons.
