Anthony Bass Called Up to Start, Again

Trenton native will make his second career start on Sunday for the San Diego Padres, facing off against the Atlanta Braves.  

In his first career start on , Bass pitched five innings, only giving up five hits and one run en route to his first major league victory. Now just twelve days later, Bass will get another opportunity but unlike the first start, he will have a home crowd that will give him even more momentum. 

Bass’ first career start was at Colorado in Coors Field, a stadium known primarily for the amount of home runs that tend to be hit there. Bass was great in his first start, locating pitches well, and even providing great defense to lead his team. 

Bass (1-0, 1.80) will face off against Atlanta’s right handed Tim Hudson (6-6, 3.73). The game starts at 4:05.
