Can you believe this crap? All you gotta do is rescue the spirits of an entire franchise and fanbase, inspire 100,000 hashtags and memes, and become the first pitcher since 1908 to have no walks and no more than one run in his first two starts, and you get free swag!
As a few grumps out there have pointed out, OK, Kopech only had one start, really. His two-inning flopsweatfest hardly counts. And while he might not have walked anyone, he’s hit three guys in his career already.
Not that I’m gonna pee on the “Kopey” debut, oh no.
