It took him 31 pro starts, but Orioles No. 10 prospect David Hess worked through his first career complete game on Tuesday afternoon.
The 22-year-old right-hander out of Tennesssee Tech delivered seven innings of one-hit ball for Class A Advanced Frederick in the first game of the Keys' doubleheader. Hess' near perfect performance included one walk and five strikeouts as Frederick took down Potomac, 4-0.
Selected in the fifth round of last summer's Draft, Hess has spent all season in Advanced ball and stands at 9-4 with a 3.58 ERA in 25 starts.
