Pittsburgh Pirates left-hander Brady Feigl made his major league debut at 33 years old in an 18-8 loss to the Chicago Cubs, despite conceding six runs in 1 2/3 innings. This milestone comes after a decade of persistence in the minors and independent leagues, having been signed as an undrafted free agent by the Atlanta Braves in 2014 from Mount St. Mary's University. Feigl's journey included stints with the Braves and Texas Rangers' farm systems, a missed 2020 season due to COVID-19, and a recent successful run in Triple-A Indianapolis. Manager Derek Shelton acknowledged the emotional significance of Feigl's debut, likening his story to that of Drew Maggi, who also debuted at 33. Feigl replaces right-hander Hunter Stratton, who was placed on a 60-day injured list.
