* Garrett Crochet (1st) - White Sox

Hey Garrett, get needled in school about your name much?!?

Anyone ever hear of this guy ... yeah, me neither. But there's a very good reason for that ... it'll be his ML debut!!

He'll become the 9th pitcher in the last 110 years to make his first ML start on opening day and just the second in the last 43 seasons.

1920 - Eddie Eayrs, Boston Braves

1925 - Lefty Grove, Philly A's

1938 - Jim Bagby, Red Sox

1939 - Red Evans - Dodgers (he had pitched in relief and would start only 6 games in his short career)

1943 - Al Gearhauser, Phillies

1944 - Preacher Roe - Pirates (his second ML game, the first was in relief six years earlier)

1981 - Fernando Valenzuela - Dodgers

2014 - Tyer Scheppers, Rangers
