UCLA pitcher Angel Cervantes joins the College Baseball Show to talk about turning down pro money out of high school to play for Coach John Savage, riding a 27+ game win streak as a true freshman on a top-ranked Bruins team, and the story behind Jerry the dinosaur, the tiny toy that rides the mound with him every outing. Angel also breaks down his dominant Cape Cod League summer with the Chatham Anglers, where he's tied for the ERA lead, adjusting to East Coast life as a West Coast kid, developing a new cutter grip, and what he's carrying into a breakout sophomore season at UCLA.
