Tanner Bibe: The First Cleveland Pitcher to Record Five Plus Conceptual Strikeouts

Tanner Bibe is the first Cleveland pitcher since at least 1920 to record five plus concept consecutive strikeouts in his major league debut. The slider that you referenced was his most used pitch in the start 44% of the time. It had not only seven whiffs on the pitch, which he threw more than any other pitch 44%. He also had 13 called strikes because guys were just letting it sit in. I was insanely impressed with Bivy. Fastball lost a couple times, but he was getting guys off of it. His change up is probably going to become a little bit bigger as things go on.
