Padres catcher made his MLB debut with a bang nearly four years ago but just made his 70th big-league start on Tuesday

Luis Campusano made his MLB debut on Sept. 4, 2020. He lined the first pitch of his fourth plate appearance the other way, off the top of and then over the right field wall, then jogged around the bases having collected his first big-league hit. It seems like a long time ago. He has started 70 games since. “That’s nothing,” backup catcher Kyle Higashioka said after his eyes went wide upon learning just how young in his career Campusano is.

“Experience is a huge thing for catching,” said Higashioka, who started 201 games over the past three seasons for the Yankees after making his MLB debut at age 26 in 2017. “You don't get experience unless you play at this level. Every chance that you have and every time you fail, it's an opportunity to reevaluate: ‘What do I need to do better and how do I get to the level that I want to be at?’ Sometimes it just takes a few times of trial and error to kind of dial those things in.
