Emanuel goes 8 2/3 in relief in MLB debut, Astros bop Angels
AP Sports Writer
HOUSTON (AP) Kent Emanuel had just sat down in the bullpen and was preparing to enjoy a leisurely cup of coffee during the first inning on Saturday.
“All of the sudden they were like: ‘Hey, you better start loosening up, ” he said. “I was like … here we go. ”
After toiling in the minors for seven long seasons, the Houston Astros pitcher was thrown into his major league debut at a moment’s notice.
And what a moment it was.
Emanuel worked 8 2/3 innings in relief, saving Houston’s bullpen after Jake Odorizzi left early with an injury, and the Astros routed the Los Angeles Angels 16-2.
