Successful teams in this year's National Championship season had one thing in common — excellent pitching. Pitchers are the most important position in baseball, and
they certainly proved their worth this summer. Ten individuals turned in game-changing
performances in their respective Super25 tournaments, and were recognized by
the PG Super25 Staff. Here’s a look at the PG Super25 MV-Pitchers of 2015:

- The Dallas Texans Lowe advanced to the championship behind the arm of Caden Fiveash, who threw a complete game and allowed only two runs in the semifinals matchup against the East Cobb Astros.
