It was the kind of Major League debut that most pitchers can only dream of. But for one, Jesse Allen Litsch, it was reality.

It seems like it was only yesterday when he was a mainstay in the Toronto Blue Jays starting rotation. Due to a series of injuries and unfortunate circumstances, Litsch was forced to retire from the game prematurely.
Nonetheless, Jesse Litsch still has one of the best debuts ever by a Blue Jays starting pitcher.
