Kumar Rocker

Texas Rangers fans were excited to see the team’s top pitching prospect Kumar Rocker make his MLB debut. The six-foot-five right-hander didn’t disappoint, firing seven strikeouts and allowing just one run in the 5-4 win against the Seattle Mariners. Rocker’s arsenal was impressive, recording 17 whiffs with 13 of them coming via his nasty signature slider. The 24-year-old hurler made big-league history by becoming the first player of Indian descent to appear in an MLB contest.
