Mike Foltynewicz (Folty) debuted in the 8th inning of the Astros 8 to 2 win over the Blue Jays. Foltynewicz tossed 12 pitches in his very first major league appearance, he was able to get two outs striking out one, and walking another.

Against – Melky Cabrera, 96mph ball, 97mph fastball (pops out to 3rd)

Against – Juan Bautista, 99mph ball, 99mph called strike, 99mph swinging strike, 99mph swinging strike (Strike out)

Against – Colby Rasmus, 98mph ball, 97mph foul, 97mph, 94, called strike, 96mph ball, 97mph ball (Walk)

Foltynewicz post game did agree that he was just getting warmed up before being pulled, “I was getting my feet under me, getting the shakes out” Foltynewicz said.

Bo Porter post game could see the potential with Foltynewicz “this guy’s going to be pretty good” Porter said. All and all it seemed like a great outing to get Foltynewicz’s feet wet and introduce him to the big leagues.
