River Ave. Blues » Bleich makes his pro debut

Bleich makes his pro debut

Sheppard on final game: 'If I can be there, I shall be there'
Game 140: Bobby out; Yanks face schedule woes

Yanks’ sandwich pick Jeremy Bleich – the highest drafted player they actually signed this year – made his professional debut with the Short Season Staten Island Yanks this afternoon. Held to a strict pitch count, the ex-Stanford southpaw tossed 3 innings, allowing 2 hits and 2 runs in the process. He struck out four, and posted a 1-4 GB/FB ratio

Bleich struck out the first batter he faced, then hit the second batter with a pitch before serving up a 2-run jack to the third. He gave up a double to the next batter, but then settled down and retired the next 7 batters 8 batters in order before exiting the game. The Baby Bombers rallied for three runs, so Bleich is off the hook for the loss. He’s obviously a bust, right?
