Despite the Drillers extra-inning loss, everyone left that game talking about the Dodgers talented left-handed pitching prospect.
Player of the day
Julio Urias had his best start of the young season. All he did was match his career high 10 strikeouts and give just one hit in his six innings of work. Urias picked off the one runner to reach base.
Here is video of the eighth strikeout recorded by Urias despite the title:
