5’11” 185 RHR - JC and 2 small 4yr schools taken in 28th round. Spent 15 seasons in show & pitched in 821 games. He earned the rare privilege of leaving the game on his own terms. Listen to him, this is what plus makeup is kiddos. This is what we loose with a 20 round draft.

We lost the big man this week. Mike Updike was a husband, father, grandfather, soldier, dreamer, builder and maker, knuckleballer, animal lover, one hell of a bird dog scout, Coors enthusiast and friend to many. You will be greatly missed. Love you Dad

Honestly as a coach it can be enjoyable to call your own kid out in real life, it is so much more satisfying wear them out on social media🤣 As much as I understand and appreciate the elite confidence, I know all pitchers have a little “dumb ass” inside. 😉 Turn up and enjoy!

Would we even care if he lines into a double play to end the inning? It is incredibly hard to do what he did, 3-0 bases drunk with one out, 92 on the outer black = oppo slam. Tatis’s ability exposed Texas at that moment, which in turn embarrassed them. This game will expose!😭
