Swinging strike (88.0 mph cutter)

Rhys Hoskins grounds out, shortstop Lourdes Gurriel Jr. to first baseman Justin Smoak.

Not a good at-bat by Hoskins.

[LoneStarPhan]

Kingery has been a top prospect and looked super great in spring training. I am reasonably confident that he will be a much better player next season.

[kikutaro]

Díaz, A

In play, no out (89.0 mph slider)

Aledmys Diaz reaches on a fielding error by shortstop Scott Kingery.

[LoneStarPhan]

That's next year, Kingery will be a much better player.

[ButlerBulldog]

Kingery has been a top prospect and looked super great in spring training. I am reasonably confident that he will be a much better player next season.

As am I. He has good swing mechanics but seems to struggle with pitch recognition, which should improve with experience.

His defense should improve, too.

[kikutaro]

McKinney

Called strike (86.9 mph changeup)
Swinging strike (90.3 mph slider)
Hit by pitch (90.7 mph slider)

Billy McKinney hit by pitch. Aledmys Diaz to 2nd.
