That was a massive bounce back outing for Seppings who had struggled with free passes and runner aboard in recent outings. He desperately needed that type of performance (and, honestly, so did I😂). You love to see it. Adversity will always happen in this absurdly difficult game. How a player bounces back in the near and mid-term can define organizational standing and their career in affiliated ball. Big day for the young Ivy Leaguer!
Putting into perspective with numbers:
April struggles saw him with an unsightly 0.311 BAA and an unsustainable 1.91 WHIP over 7 appearances and 11 IP. So far, in early May through 2 appearances and 3 2/3 IP, he has experienced a 0.100 BAA and a 0.55 WHIP. Obviously, this isn't an apples-to-apples comparison given the disparity in total innings and appearances but it's a fantastic start since the calendar flipped to May.
