Jacob Nottingham Will Make First Career Start
7 years agoMilwaukee Brewers catcher Jacob Nottingham will make his first MLB start at the catcher position on Tuesday against the Cincinnati Reds. Nottingham came into Monday's game after Jett Bandy was pulled in a 9-0 game, and Nottingham earned two walks in two plate appearances. That's almost unheard of, as many rookies come out swinging trying to make a name for themselves. This plate discipline has earned him a start in what is right now a very injured catcher position for the Brewers with Manny Pina and Stephen Vogt out with injury. Nottingham is only 23 years old and could make a good impression on the Brewers organization during this time, so keep an eye out.
