Did Ya Know 🧐 :
KIRBY ALWAYS WAS MY FAVORITE IN SUPER SMASH BROS: Topping the list of favorite video game characters and 'Pigs relievers, Kirby Snead has been a gem of late, going a career long 3.1 innings on 8/9 in an emergency opener role. He allowed just two unearned runs and hasn't allowed an earned run since July 7 (15.2IP). Over those eight outings, he's walked just one while striking out 12. He's made three, three-inning appearances this season, his most ever in a single season. - Sam Jellinek - Manager, Broadcasting & Media Relations - Lehigh Valley IronPigs
