Félix Bautista gave up one run while getting two outs in his 2026 debut Sunday night against the Brewers.

Bautista averaged 96.2 mph with his sinker. That’s down one mph from where he was last year before shoulder surgery and down three mph from 2023, but it is one mph better than he’d averaged in eight Triple-A appearances on his rehab assignment. Bautista will probably pitch twice more this week as he tries to give himself something to build on entering 2027.
