New York Yankees pitcher Cam Schlittler delivered a dominant performance in his first start of the season, throwing 5 1/3 scoreless innings against the San Francisco Giants. Following the game, Schlittler received a surprise shoutout from his childhood idol, Tom Brady, who posted a photo of the pitcher wearing a CardVault hat on Instagram. Brady's caption, "Looking good, rip soon?" alluded to the sports card business he co-owns.
Schlittler, who grew up in Massachusetts and is a devoted fan of the New England Patriots, expressed his excitement about Brady's recognition. He shared his admiration for Brady's success and the championships he brought to Boston during his tenure with the Patriots. Schlittler has recently rekindled his interest in collecting sports cards and even visited a CardVault store.
The young pitcher has quickly ascended the Yankees' prospect ranks since being drafted in 2022. He made his MLB debut last July and is expected to be a key part of the Yankees' rotation, especially as they await the return of Gerrit Cole and Carlos Rodón from the injured list.
