That’s the only word that truly captures how Kyle Harrison looked in his first home start Monday night against the Reds. He was utterly dominant from the get-go, striking out the first five batters he faced. He had command of all his pitches and toyed with a very good Reds lineup, making them look completely overmatched in the process, and cut them up like he was prime Randy Johnson. Scientifically speaking, he flat-out shoved.

This was the Harrison that Giants fans have been salivating over since he was drafted out of De La Salle in 2020, the continuation of the Cain-Lincecum-Bumgarner bloodline.
