He was only slated to throw one inning in a spring training game. However, for the organization? This was a pretty big day.
Kopech consistently sat around 100 with his FB. Hit 101 a couple of times. Most notably, on his strike 3 fastball to Greg Bird to complete his 11 pitch 1-2-3 inning. It painted the outside corner, knee high... basically unhittable.
His two other outs were soft grounders up the middle of the infield.
1 inning 0 BB's 0 H's 0 R's 1 K on 11 pitches.
If he continues pitching with the stuff and command that he showed today. It will be interesting to see what excuse we use to send him down to Charlotte until late April.
