Tanner Gordon makes promising MLB debut for the Colorado Rockies

The Colorado Rockies have said this is a season when they will let the kids play, and on Sunday, they began to make good on that promise by calling up righty Tanner Gordon.

Clearly, a debut does not a career make, but it’s worth taking a moment to consider his first game, what we’ve learned, and what to expect going forward.

What was the final stat line?

Pretty, pretty good.

Gordon pitched 6 13 innings giving up five runs (all earned) on eight hits, including two home runs, four strikeouts, and zero walks.
