Quintin Torres-Costa, the Brewers’ 35th round draft pick, made a dominant debut for Milwaukee’s Arizona Rookie League farm team on Monday.
The former UH-Manoa left-hander and 2012 Waiakea graduate pitched three innings in relief and whiffed four against the AZL Angels.
Torres-Costa gave up a run on two hits and no walks for the AZL Brewers, who opened their season on Saturday.
He signed for a $40,000 package, including a $20,000 signing bonus, according to his agent Dave Matranga, of PSI Sports, who represents a bunch of Hawaii players.
Matranga’s other clients are Kolten and Kean Wong, Kodi Medeiros, Jodd Carter, Jordan Yamamoto and Campbell High’s Ian Kahaloa, the Cincinnati Reds’ fifth-round pick.
