Jim Fuller -- no, not the longtime Register women's basketball writer -- continues to baffle minor league hitters. Now in his third pro season after one magical year at Southern Connecticut State, Fuller is 7-2 with a 1.81 ERA in 15 starts for the Savannah Sand Gnats, the Class A South Atlantic League affiliate of the New York Mets.


Fuller has 83 strikeouts in 89 innings, and was named to the SALLY all-star team.


The Register's Jim Fuller, though not an all-star pitcher, can still rain home hook shots from 3-point range.
