There truly is something about Michael Kopech. I was at the park last night and the kid just has that special something. Yes, the park was electric being the first start of our phenom, but wow! There is a pop you can hear when his pitches hit the catcher's mitt that you just do not get with every pitcher. While only 2 IP due to a 52 Minute rain delay, the kid had nerves of steel. Twins got two duck snort hits to start the game and Kopech just bared down and got out of the inning without allowing a run. 2nd inning right before the downpour hit, he KO's the side.
Of course he will probable have his bumps in the road, but this kid is going to be something special!
