Cleveland Indians minor-leaguer has yet to give up a run in his pro career

Published May. 12, 2015 11:41 a.m. ET

The beginning of J.P. Feyereisen's pro baseball career has been absolutely perfect. Literally.

Drafted in the 16th round of the 2014 MLB Draft, J.P. Feyereisen has already accomplished a pretty amazing feat in his young career -- he has yet to allow a run since turning pro.

The 22-year-old relief pitcher out of Wisconsin-Stevens Point is 4-0 with an ERA of 0.00.

Feyereisen has pitched 28 innings between the Mahoning Valley Scrappers (Class-A Short Season) in 2014 and the Lake County Captains (Class-A) this season. In those 28.0 innings, he's struck out 42 batters, allowed 11 hits, and walked only five.

So far this season, he's a perfect seven-for-seven in save opportunities, has racked up 18 strikeouts and has only walked four in 11 innings pitched.

The only other pitcher at the Class-A level to throw more innings and not allow a run this season has been St. Louis Cardinals prospect Kyle Grana, as noted by Let's Go Tribe. The 24-year-old reliever hasn't allowed a run in 11.2 innings for the Peoria Chiefs, but has walked six, which is two more than Feyereisen.
