Ben Braymer, a 2016 18th Round pick out of Auburn University, who made his MLB debut with Washington’s Nationals in late August 2020, four years after the club selected him, wrapped up his 2020 campaign with five scoreless innings of work against Miami on the road in Marlins Park.
Braymer started in the majority of his outings in the Nationals’ minor league system (52 of 75), but came out of the bullpen in his first two big league appearances, before getting an opportunity to start down the stretch.
“I want him to go out there and just relax and just get one out,” manager Davey Martinez said before Braymer faced the Fish.
