Scouts at a showcase for 17-year-old baseball players started packing up and getting ready to leave when a 14-year-old took the mound. When Tyler Brown’s first pitch hit 92 mph on a radar gun, they all immediately returned to the bleachers. That has been the story of Tyler’s life thus far, the odds always seemed stacked against him. But his story is one of perseverance and resilience. Those qualities are what could make Brown a Major League closer in a few years. And I can’t think of any high school or college pitcher that I would want to close out games for the Detroit Tigers in a few years.
Vanderbilt’s closer Tyler Brown has an incredible story
