Struck out eight in five innings of work. The 6-foot, 225-pound freshman left-hander showed advanced pitchability, moving his 89-91 mph fastball around the edges of the strike zone while mixing a near average curveball, a usable low-80s changeup and flashed a pair of sliders. His curve showed good shape and depth, ranging from 73-76 mph at 2600 rpm, while his slider showed more cutter shape/action at 80-82.
