Gimme 5: Tinley Park's Stroz Earning her Stripes

Miranda Stroz is a freshman pitching standout at Tinley Park.

She has worked in a platoon with the Titans' Stacey Pickrum this spring and has had some productive outings while gaining varsity experience. Stroz came up on the short end of a 7-0 loss to Oak Forest last week.

But she remained upbeat. And why not? Her future is bright.

She was profiled recently as the Patch . She plays travel ball in Lemont.
