Keep your hands off my DIII standout from Johns Hopkins, Josh Hejka. That's correct, it's Johns. Not John.

He's a native Michigander and looks like a 12-year old Chris Sabo on the mound. So far, 1.1 innings pitched this season in Appy League Kingsport with 2 Ks and 1 BB. He's got a chance!

I'd like to see you square up on this action

The little guy was sent down for a little more seasoning. What a classy write-up!

Kingsport 5, Burlington 4

Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, features one of the top medical schools in the country.

Kingsport Mets pitcher Josh Hejka went there and maybe that’s why he works with the precision of a surgeon on the mound.

Hejka pitched a scoreless ninth inning to notch his third save as the Mets eked out a win over the Burlington Royals

Hejka has yet to allow an earned run in 8 1/3 innings pitched for Kingsport and also logged 1 1/3 scoreless innings for the Brooklyn Cyclones of the short-season advanced New York-Penn League.

Little guy still getting innings after all these years. Spot relief in Brooklyn this season. We've all had spot relief in Brooklyn at some point.

Got a taste of upstate with Bingo to Syracuse in 2022 but threw the limb out resulting in TJ surgery. Make the comeback kid!
