New York Mets pitcher Christian Scott delivers to the Tampa Bay Rays during the first inning of a baseball game Saturday, May 4, 2024, in St. Petersburg, Fla. Tampa Bay Rays, he showed just that.What happened was a 24-year-old right-hander showing dominance for the majority of his MLB debut. He gave up a run on consecutive hits to the first three batters he faced, bore down with a strikeout and a first-inning-ending double play, then hit his stride.
Scott retired 12 Rays in a row from the bottom of the first to the bottom of the fifth while going 6.2 strong innings, allowing just that one run on five hits with six punchouts and one walk. “I was super comfortable out there, trust my stuff, pound the strike zone,” Scott said. “It’s exactly what I wanted to do. I was able to throw a lot of changeups to righties today which was huge to get them off my heater and my sweeper and just cruise after that.”
