What is the story about?
Gage Wood made his professional debut last night in Clearwater.
Wood is going to be remembered for his performance in the College World Series when he threw a no-hitter in Omaha for Arkansas. He threw a bunch of pitches in that game, the ending to a season in which he had a few nicks here and there. Likely that the team simply wants him to get on a routine to end the season, maybe get a few innings
under his belt.
A good start for him.
