As the temperatures rise and schools get out, it feels like summer is finally here, and baseball season is in full swing. Let’s see how some former Illini have done in the majors and minors this past week:
Tanner Roark, P, Washington Nationals

Tyler Jay, P, Chattanooga Lookouts
Jay made two relief appearances last week, giving up a combined three hits and one unearned run in 4.1 innings. His ERA now sits at 1.62 on the season.
