Zach Brzykcy didn’t get nearly as much attention as the other September call-up added to the Washington Nationals’ roster on Sunday, but his rise to the majors is just as good a story as Darren Baker’s (minus the future Hall of Fame father, and a World Series moment no one will let Darren forget).

Brzykcy, 25, signed as an undrafted free agent out of Virginia Tech in 2020, had a breakout season in 2022, but injured his elbow and had Tommy John surgery early in 2023.
