First professional pitch was a ground out to first. 1st inning was 3 up 3 down with a K of first rounder Walker Jenkins.

Tough luck for Jenkins. Can’t imagine a guy straight from HS facing Skenes right now.

A guy in a twitter group I'm in posted a photo his dad took who is currently at the game. Moustache still intact:

Waving batters off after a punch out is a good way to get your teammates killed in pro ball

Looking at that picture is pretty sad

Imagine going from playing night in night out in front of 10k people.. to pitching in front of 20k people in Omaha.

To pitching in front of a hundred people

This is a start to knock the rust off. It’s rookie league. Most of guys he’s facing are probably just out of high school.
