Anderson

in his Major League debut.

Not only did Anderson earn another start, but he slid right into the Atlanta Braves’ starting rotation. The Braves, who were in desperate need of starting pitching, are hoping to find some consistency in Anderson.

His three pitches were enough to fool the Yan

kees last week, although it wouldn’t be quite fair to expect him to go out and nearly throw a no-hitter every time.

While his fastball sat around 94-95, he mixed in a curve and changeup that kept hitters off balance. At some point, big league hitters are going to adjust, so for Anderson, the key now is to stay one step ahead. Being able to utilize his change, which has nasty movement, in any count, could be a big factor towards his contin

ued success.

In a player’s debut, there is bound to be a ton of adrenaline pumping, so a second outing is usually a good chance to gauge what kind of production you will typically get.

Baseball fans in the Capital Region got lucky last week when Anderson’s debut against the Yankees was aired regionally on the YES Network and on ESPN 1045 The Team.

For those that don’t have MLB.TV, being able

to watch Anderson pitch on a regular basis might be a challenge, since not every game will be against the Yankees or Mets. As far as Tuesday’s game, the Red Sox have a radio affiliate in Albany that broadcasts their games.

Those looking to follow Anderson’s second career start can listen on WOFX 980 AM, as well as the MLB At-Bat App and watch on MLB.TV, with the latter two requiring subscriptions.
