Scott Richmond, a Canadian from North Vancouver, made his MLB debut with the Toronto Blue Jays today, but lost 3-2 to the Tampa Rays.
Richmond pitched 5.1 innings, gave up 7 hits and 3 runs, with 4 strikeouts. Some more offense by the jays might have helped him to a win, but he’ll have to settle for a strong first time outing.
Richmond is the 229th Canadian to play in the major leagues.
