When it comes to closers in college baseball, two of the best are Southern California products: Jimmie Sherfy (Newbury Park, 2010) and David Berg (Bishop Amat, 2011).
Sherfy, a junior, has 16 saves for Oregon and is 2-0 with a 1.09 ERA.
Berg, a sophomore, has 12 saves for UCLA and is 6-0 with an 0.68 ERA, including 25 2/3 consecutive scoreless innings.
Above is video from Berg’s freshman year in 2012.
