San Marino reinforces the mountain with Quattrini »Baseball.it
The mound of San Marino is well known by Gabriele Quattrini. In fact, it was September when the pitcher from Macerata was putting Fortitudo Bologna in great difficulty in the semifinal of the final four which assigned a place to the 2022 Champions Cup. In seven complete innings he had scored 9 strike-outs with only 2 points. Then the reliefs entered and Bologna overturned the game.
Well, that day was just confirmation that the Titan leaders had been right. Because San Marino has long since set its sights on one of the best Italian pitchers in the 2021 championship, not called up, among other things, in the blue jersey for the European Championships.
In a mountain made in Italy that will be closed without Tiago Da Silva, the Italian champions therefore bet on the 25-year-old pitcher from Potenza Picena who has his best season with 8 wins and 4 defeats, an average pgl of 3.14 and 103 strikes-out in the 83 inning. It is true that with the 32-team Serie A the figures must also be analyzed in many other ways, but precisely for this reason Quattrini will need his first championship in a big one.
Carlo Ravegnani, born in Rimini on January 31, 1968, began his journalistic career at the age of 20 in the then Gazzetta di Rimini, “replaced” in 1993 by the current Corriere Romagna where he works as a sports editor. Collaborator for the Rimini area of the Corriere dello Sport-Stadio, baseball was a fundamental component in his life: first a fan in the stands of the Pirate Stadium, then a player in the legendary Parco Marecchia and then in Rimini 86, a company he founded together with a group of irreducible friends. So a journalist of the beat and run on his own newspaper and some occasional collaborations with specialized magazines as well as radio commentator of the Pirates matches together with his friend and colleague Andrea Perari. In recent years, the managerial career has also begun, with the presidency (since 2014) of the Falcons Torre Pedrera. The passion has been handed down to his son Riccardo who plays pitcher and first base in the Falcons themselves.
