Rays Minor League Pitcher for the month of May, Austin Vernon joins the show for a lengthy discussion. Austin is having a terrific start to his professional career, but even more so in that month of May, where in 20.1 innings pitched, he had a 0.44 ERA, 34 strikeouts, 0.74 WHIP. Even more impressive, he faced 76 batters and allowed 0 HR.

Austin shares his love for baseball since his toddler days as bat boy, his high school days as corner infielder and then cementing himself as a pitcher standing at 6'8''. He also mentions his development as a pitcher rather than a thrower, and his ability to control his 4 pitches in the strike zone. Draft memories, a day in the life for him and some fun rapid fire questions will make Rays fans become Austin Vernon fans.

This is Part 1 of a three-part interview.
