Jason Schmidt’s start today at Inland Empire went quite well, as mentioned in various stories around the web. Kevin Pearson’s story over at the Press-Enterprise caught my eye, “Schmidt cruises in rehab start”, for this passage:
On Wednesday, Colletti said Schmidt was routinely hitting 88 on the radar gun and at one point hit 91. He was hitting 88-89 out of the stretch in the sixth inning.
“I wasn’t thinking about it,” said Schmidt, who purchased a post-game spread from Claim Jumper for the entire 66ers roster. “I was thinking more about getting life on the fastball and trying to locate it. That was the biggest thing for me, that, and pitching pain free, and we accomplished that today.”
Nice guy! :)
