The Mike Baumann Minute elapses with 3 hits allowed (including 1 triple) in two-thirds of an inning late in a blowout win. Now, there was a lot of chatter on social media last night wondering why Baumann was on the roster at all when Spencer Bivens serves a similar purpose and had already endeared himself to fans, teammates, and coaches.
Following his 3-inning stint in Cleveland earlier this month, Bivens was optioned back to Sacramento, where he pitched 6.2 innings across 5 appearances. He allowed just 1 run (earned), walked just 1 and struck out 5. while allowing 7 hits. Welcome back, Spencer Bivens!
