Michael Lorenzen made his 2021 spring training debut on Friday night. The Cincinnati Reds pitcher came out of the bullpen following a 3-inning start by José De León . For Lorenzen, the numbers he put up weren’t the best. He allowed three runs – all on a 3-run homer by Jose Rojas – in 1.2 innings with a walk and a strikeout. But for Lorenzen the numbers didn’t mean much and he’s not concerned about trying to impress the organization this spring given his past success.
“I’ve told them, you’ve seen me throw for six years,” said Lorenzen.
