Right-handed specialist Nick Pepper will return to the Beach Bums bullpen for 2009, joining Ted Gjeldum, Pete McEneaney, and Jared Locke as returners from a group that was among the league's most feared in 2008...
Pepper will suit up for his third season with the Beach Bums after being acquired following spring training in 2007...Pepper was chosen by the Kalamazoo Kings with the sixth overall pick in the 2007 Frontier League draft but was let go and snatched up by the Beach Bums...
Pepper appeared in 41 games during 2008 and posted a 2-3 record along with two saves to go with a 2.70 ERA...The side-armer stifled right-handed hitters to the tune of just a .209 batting average...He tossed a season best 2.1 innings at Southern Illinois on July 13...
Pepper will be an LS-1 by Frontier League standards in 2009...
