Former Rebel pitcher Chris Ellis notches first MLB win
Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports The last time Rebel fans saw pitcher Chris Ellis wear an Ole Miss uniform it was during a glorious College World Series run in 2014.
Now, the former Rebel is beginning to make some noise at the highest level of professional baseball. Ellis went four innings last night for the Tampa Bay Rays (73-47, 1st AL East) striking out seven and most importantly, earning his first big league win.
