The Aberdeen Ironbirds, the Baltimore Orioles Short-Season A affiliate, have a 15-13 record as they enter play on Sunday. Starting pitchers have accounted for seven of those 15 wins and one in particular, right-handed pitcher Dallas Litscher, is becoming the leader of the staff. His three wins are more than the win total (two) of the other four starters combined.
Drafted in the 10th round (295th overall pick) of the 2018 MLB Draft out of the University of St. Katherine in San Marcos, California, Litscher entered the Baltimore organization on the heels of a senior collegiate season that saw him produce an 8-1 record over 17 appearances (16 starts) spanning over 73.
