On Saturday evening, Detroit Tigers pitching prospect Casey Mize fell back down to earth after his no-hit debut with the Erie Seawolves. However, Mize continued to show why he was drafted with the #1 overall pick in 2018 with his five-inning, two hit performance versus the Bowie Baysox.
Detroit Tigers top prospect Casey Mize surprisingly did not throw a perfect game Saturday evening at UPMC that he jokingly alluded to in a post-game interview following his AA debut on Monday, where he threw a no-hitter.
Mize pitched just fine in limited action tonight, throwing only 5 innings.
