Ryan Reid makes major league debut
Pittsburgh just brought in Ryan Reid. Atlanta had bases loaded with two outs in the seventh. He got a ground out to short. Atlanta up 7-1

Then he got three ground outs in the 8th inning. So, pitched to 4 batters and got 4 ground outs. Pretty decent debut.

Reid showed a lot of promise in the Rays organization but never got the call up to the Show. Great to see him finally get his shot with the Pirates.

RE: Ryan Reid makes major league debut
Yeah, my ears perked up when he came in the game last night and I heard the words "James Madison." I wasn't familiar with him. Was he a starter at JMU? I'm a big Braves fan, but with a 7-1 lead I was glad to see him get out of that jam. What a way to start your career, welcome to the big leagues - by the way, the based are loaded.

And as an added bonus, he also has a direct link to the famous Evan Gattis - the greatest/oldest Braves rookie in history. Apparently, Reid was the guy who anointed Gattis with his now famous nickname - El Oso Blanco - during their time together in the Venezuelan winter league.

Yes, he was a starter at JMU and his first year in the minors, but was converted to a reliever after that. Here are his stats:

Great story about the Gattis connection!

Reid seemingly the last from the era when JMU could still find and develop pitching worthy of watching
