Louisville, Kentucky native Jeremy Sowers, a product of Ballard High School, pitched five innings in his MLB debut for the Cleveland Indians. The Vanderbilt graduate struck out 3 including Adam Dunn for his first career strikeout in the major leagues.
In the fourth inning, Sowers gave up two two-run home runs to Ken Griffey, Jr. (13) and Adam Dunn (24), and picks up his first MLB loss.
Sowers was 9-1 with the Buffalo Bisons (AAA) with a 1.39 ERA and 54 strikeouts through 97.1 innings pitched.
His brother, Josh, a graduate of Yale, has been promoted to the Lansing Lugnuts in the Toronto Blue Jays organization.
