Maestri makes Major League debut in spring training
|
Cubs prospect Alessandro Maestri, who this season is likely to become the first Italian born player to play in double-A got a chance to play with the Cubs Major League team in the final week of spring training, pitching a scoreless inning Wednesday against the Oakland A's.
Maestri came in to pitch the fifth inning in a game that Cubs ace Carlos Zambrano started.
Ale struck out Orlando Cabrera looking, allowed a ground ball single to Jason Giambi, and then struck out Matt Holliday and Eric Chavez for what will clearly be a memory that will last the young Italian righthander his whole life, and earning a handshake and compliments from Cubs manager Lou Piniella.
We hope to see Maestri back with the big club for good some time in the next year or two!
