German National Team pitcher Andre Hughes is going to try his luck in the Dutch National League next year after a highly successful 2008 season in the Bundesliga. The 23-year-old lefty was 11-1 with a 1.79 ERA in 13 starts for the Solingen Alligators last summer, striking out 77 hitters in 80.2 innings. Hughes allowed more than two runs just two times, and on the last day of the regular season, he tossed five no-hit innings against the Cologne Cardinals, striking out six. He was 1-2 in the playoffs with a 2.53 ERA. Internationally, Hughes has played for Germany in the European Championships, the Baseball World Cup and the Olympics Qualifier Tournament.
Hughes has signed a deal for 2009 with the Hoofdklasse’s HCAW Mr. Cocker club.
