San Diego called up Jackson Wolf, a 6'7' lefty who's been fantastic at Double A San Antonio, to make his Major League debut on Saturday in Detroit.
The Padres starting pitching rotation is very talented. But it is not very deep. So, with Michael Wacha working through a shoulder issue the Friars had to dip into their minor league system to find another arm.San Diego called up Jackson Wolf, a 6'7" lefty who's been fantastic at Double A San Antonio, to make his Major League debut on Saturday in Detroit. He was drafted just two years ago out of West Virginia University.
Wolf did both, and with some help from a potent Padres offense, won his maiden big league voyage in a 14-3 blowout that gave the Friars a second straight series win.Sign up for NBC San Diego newsletters. Wolf got through the 1st inning on a mere four pitches but struggled through the 2nd. Jake Rogers drove in a run with a double to make it 1-0 Tigers and the skies opened up, starting an 84 minute rain delay. When play resumed Wolf was right back on the mound. It took him a bit of time to get back on track.
The rookie allowed three runs on four straight hits in the inning. But, he settled back in and didn't allow another run in 5.0 innings of work. He got plenty of congratulatory hugs in the San Diego dugout then watched his bats go bonkers. In the 3rd inning Juan Soto doubled home a run then scored on a 3-run homer by Manny Machado, who is on a hot streak even by his lofty standards. After hitting just nine home runs in the first three months of the season Manny has ripped 10 dingers in July alone.
