Atlanta Braves Minor League Recap: Touki Toussaint debuts in Triple-A

Touki Toussaint made his Triple-A debut and he certainly did not disappoint - almost reaching seven innings while giving up just one earned run. After struggling just a bit in the first and giving up one run he settled in and returned the next 10 batters. Touki worked mid-90s for most of the game, held his velocity deep into the game, hit 97 a few times all the while showing much improved command/control of his changeup and using his curveball to toy with batters. After walking a batter with two outs in the seventh Touki Toussaint was replaced by Jason Hursh who immediately induced a groundball and preserved the lead for Touki.
