Already boasting a stellar pitching duo of Sean Whitten and Tony Peeples, the Bombers are thrilled to add the hard throwing Canadian to the staff.<\/p>\n<p>In 2006 Tilley threw for the Bloomington Stix at the ISC WT and had a strong performance that boasted one of the top strikeout\/inning ratio\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s (1.65) and with Whitten gives the Bombers two of only 10 pitchers clocked at 81+ MPH at the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>Coach McGiffin:<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Darrell is a bit of a hidden gem and we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re excited to add that potential to our staff. He throws as hard as anyone in the world and having faced him a couple of times last year, we have first hand knowledge that he has great stuff beyond just velocity. With more support and less innings, we think he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll take his place among the top throwers in the world this year.<\/p>\n<p>With Darrell and Sean our staff now has two of the hardest throwers in the ISC and with the leadership of Team USA veteran Tony Peeples, who compliments them fully with great stuff and a bulldog approach, we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re very excited about the depth and quality of our pitching staff. We may be underrated in this regard going into the season but we believe in these guys and their ability to get people out.
