Haverford’s Tommy Bergjans Settling In At Reading

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — It was a good night on Tuesday for Tommy Bergjans.

The former Haverford College star made his second start of the season for the Phillies Double-A squad the Reading Fightin Phils and really threw the ball well. In six innings against the Akron RubberDucks, the 24-year-old right-hander allowed just two runs on three hits, he had just one walk and seven strikeouts, picking up his first Double-A victory.

“Felt good,” Bergjans tells KYW Newsradio. “Felt healthy. Fastball and curve ball were working pretty well today and (catcher) Chase Numata called a really good game.
