MacKenzie Gore gave up four runs, two in each of the first two innings of his fourth start of the spring back on March 12th, but wrapped up the outing by retiring eight of the last nine batters he faced.
Gore, 24, talked to reporters after that outing about getting off to better starts than he had to that point this spring, and in the big picture, not just in his four Grapefruit League starts to that point, but in his pro career.
“I need to get better at starting,” he said, as quoted by MASN’s Mark Zuckerman.
