Cleveland — It was Daniel Norris’ season in a nutshell.
He entered the game in the seventh inning Monday throwing fire. His four-seam fastball, which has sat at 92-93 mph this season, was hitting 95 and 96 mph on the radar gun. He was throwing 90-mph change-ups. It was like 2016 all over again.
Except, when he walked off the mound, he'd given up three singles and a run.
“I talked to (pitching coach Chris) Fetter and he was like, ‘I think the Baseball Gods just hate you right now,’” Norris said before the game Tuesday.
