Roster filled

The Wild Things filled their open roster spot – the result of pitchers Michael Lucas and Corey Bachman having their contracts sold to affiated clubs last week – by signing right-handed pitcher Zach Groh out of Binghamton University.

Groh (6-2, 205) is from Reading, Pa., and a graduate of the The Perkimen School.

In four seasons at Binghamton, Groh had a 19-8 record and 2.94 ERA. In 235 2/3 career innings, Groh gave up 195 hits and 75 walks. He struck out 251. He was the America East Conference Pitcher of the Year as a sophomore.

Groh is scheduled to start the Wild Things' game Tuesday at Florence.

Washington had played Thursday night with the league minimum 22 active players. Pitcher John leonard was activated Friday to bring the total to 23, one below the limit.
