Four outs. To save the game.

Love to watch Sulser.   After seeing so many games get away late last year, this is a guy to have convince in.

Seven outs, because of the Iglesias error!

I liked that he didn’t flinch after that miscue.    Of course, Iglesias made a pretty sweet play in the 9th, too.

Per Baseball Reference Minor League splits when Sulser would step on the mound the first batters he would face only hit .182 against him (180 Plate Appearances) . So he was very good at getting first guy he would face out . Averages 12K's per 9 innings pitched .

Who is this guy again?  He was from Tampa I see that

Actually at that point I was counting his three and Iglesias boot. But seven it is!

Two bachelors degrees from Dartmouth in engineering and public policy.   5 years at Dartmouth because of TJ surgery as junior.     Drafted by Cleveland on 25th round     2nd TJ in 2015.  Traded to Tampa in 2018.   Made majors late in 2019.   Claimed  by O's Oct 2019.

[MurphDogg]

Drafted at 23 and already had two TJ surgeries. 30 but less mileage on the arm with the 2 TJs and playing at a non baseball power in the Ivy League. Who knows how long the elbow will hold up, but he looks good out there.

[HowAboutThat]

Two TJs! Wow

@Frobby how many pitchers have been successful with TWO TJ surgeries? It can’t be very common right?

How long before a guy runs out of replacement tendons?

I am doing this completely off memory, but I think Jason Isringhausen had three.

EDIT: looked it up, that is true. Throw Johnny Venters on the 3x pile too.
