After an impressive performance in his MLB debut going four innings, allowing one run and striking out seven, #KumarRocker prepares for his first star in front of the Texas Rangers’ home crowd. Rocker, 24, worked his way to the majors in his comeback season from Tommy John surgery. Rocker turned in seven dominant starts at the Double-A and Triple-A levels. In his five starts for Double-A Frisco, Rocker pitched to a 0.46 ERA with 29 strikeouts and three walks in 19 2/3 innings. He then made a pair of starts for Triple-A Round Rock, and over that brief span Rocker boasted a 1.80 ERA with 18 strikeouts and only one walk in 10 innings.
