KANNAPOLIS, NC- Intimidators right-hander Greg Infante was named the South Atlantic League Pitcher of the Week after a blistering start to the 2009 season.

Over the first week of the campaign, Infante (1-0) pitched 12 scoreless innings over two starts. The 21-year-old out of Caracas, Venezuela started the season in stunning fashion, striking out 11 over six no-hit innings on Opening Night.

The award, which includes the opening week and a half of the season (April 8-19), is the first for Infante in the South Atlantic League. He was also named Appalachian League pitcher of the week on August 4, 2008.

Infante is next scheduled to pitch in Tuesday's series opener with the Greenville Drive at Fieldcrest Cannon Stadium. Seats for that game and all four against the Boston Red Sox affiliate are still available at IntimidatorsBaseball.com, over the phone at (704) 932-3267 or in-person at Fieldcrest Cannon Stadium.
