Brother Martin was one of the teams that we were excited to see down in Lake Charles, LA last weekend, and we came away impressed with Tingstrom's outing. The Delgado Community College recruit got the start against Waxahatchie (TX) and tossed 5 2/3 IP giving up 1 ER on 4 H with 1 BB and 1 K on just 67 pitches (44 strikes | 23 balls). Tingstrom works off the third base side of the rubber and hides the ball extremely well, before using a compact arm stroke to release the ball from a 3/4 slot. He attacked hitters with a 80-81 mph FB and did an excellent job of driving his FB in to right-handed hitters. Tingstrom rarely had to go to his 70-73 mph CB or his late-fading 74-75 mph CH, but both were solid secondary offerings. If he can replicate this type of performance each week, then he'll be awfully tough to beat.
