Bailey Falter, man. The guy is just locked in this month. Five strong, shoutout innings. Only 62 pitches. 47 have been fastballs. Nothing fancy. Just going out there and shoving.
Bailey Falter is at 59 pitches through 5 shutout innings. Better get him outta there.

Three up, three down for Falter in the second. He needed just 28 pitches to get through the first two innings.
That's a nice top of the first for Bailey Falter. Two K's and a pop out to first. Allowed a walk as well, but no harm done. Cutch will lead things off for the Bucs in the bottom half.
