⚾️🔥 The Nolan Weber Agency through American Family Insurance presents the Top 3 Small School Returners in ERA! 🔥⚾️ These pitchers know how to keep runs off the board and give their teams a chance every time they take the mound. After outstanding seasons last year, this trio is back and ready to keep dealing in 2026. 💥 Note: most have at least 20 innings thrown. 🥇 Jaxton Leach — 1.02 ERA Jaxton led the way in this category and proved he can be lights out on the mound. He’ll be looking to keep attacking hitters and posting big-time numbers again this season. ⚾️ 🥈 Louie Gonner — 1.32 ERA Louie turned in an excellent season and showed he can be one of the toughest arms around.
