Take it at “face value” that Peyton Irvin has all the makings of an ace pitcher. It has taken the sophomore pitcher just one start in 2021 and just a handful overall in his early collegiate career to prove that he’s every bit as good as advertised.
Look no further than his career numbers to date in a limited sample size – 3-0 record, a 1.86 ERA, and 24 strikeouts. All this in just 29.1 innings of work and 5 total starts. The Habersham Central native lives a stone’s throw from Piedmont College, where he now stars for the Lions baseball team.
