Former T-Bones pitcher makes MLB debutCongratulations to former T-Bones pitcher (and Kansas City area native) Kris Johnson, who made his Major League debut with the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday. Pitching against the Arizona Diamondbacks, Johnson threw six innings in relief, and gave up two runs on five hits with two walks and five strikeouts. On Monday, the Pirates optioned Johnson back to triple-A Indianapolis, but Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle had high praise for Johnson after Sunday’s game. |
