Watch Casey Mize make a bunch of hitters look bad in his High-A debut

The Lakeland Flying Tigers were drubbed 8-0 on Tuesday, but that’s not even close to the whole story. Casey Mize, the No. 1 overall pick in this year’s MLB draft, made his High-A debut with the Flygers in this game. The score suggests it didn’t go well, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Mize racked up a bunch of swinging strikes (as you will see below) en route to three scoreless innings before all hell broke loose after he departed the game.
