New York Yankees right-handed pitching prospect Ben Hess struck out nine batters across 6 2/3 innings of one-run ball on Thursday against High-A Wilmington. In this outing, Hess' lone run was unearned. He also allowed just one hit and one walk. This was the third time this season Hess struck out nine batters in a single start. The Yankees selected Hess out of Alabama with the 26th pick in last year's MLB draft. The right-hander has spent the first month of his debut campaign at the High-A level. Through his first 25 innings of work, Hess has held a 3.24 ERA with a stellar 0.96 WHIP. He has struck out 39 batters and served up just 12 walks. Given his steady progress, he should be in the mix to reach Double-A in the coming months.--Andy Smith - RotoBallerRead More News
