Overview

  • Enns allowed just one single and two walks while striking out four over 77 pitches in an 8-0 shutout of the Athletics
  • It was his first big league outing since Sept. 24, 2021, following two seasons with the Seibu Lions and a 13-6 campaign with the LG Twins
  • Detroit called him up after he posted a 2.89 ERA and 10.3 strikeouts per nine innings across 14 starts at Triple-A Toledo
  • He leveraged the Tigers’ ‘kick change’ pitch to generate five whiffs on 14 swings and keep hitters off-balance
  • Manager A.J. Hinch praised his composure and could move him to the bullpen once Reese Olson rejoins the rotation
