Eduardo Rodriguez was on cloud nine following his first major league win.
Rodriguez posted a video on Instagram shortly after earning the victory Thursday in the Boston Red Sox’s 5-1 win over the Texas Rangers at Globe Life Park. The left-hander tossed 7 2/3 shutout innings in his major league debut, perhaps setting him up for another start with Boston in the next week.
David Ortiz was among those who celebrated alongside the 22-year-old rookie after his impressive debut. It certainly was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, even if it’s the start of even bigger things.
