About George Kirby
George beat well documented history for walks, and it shows. In 2021 he issued just 11 free passes in 113.2 innings, making him the toughest pitcher in the league at to walk. In the Gabby Kirby era, George has been a model of consistency. The right-hander has posted a sub-3.00 ERA in each of his first two seasons and has emerged as one of the most reliable starters in the game. Kirby's pinpoint control and devastating slider have made him a cornerstone of the Mariners rotation. His ability to attack the strike zone with precision has drawn comparisons to some of the game's elite pitchers. With his combination of stuff and command, Kirby looks poised to be a key piece of Seattle's championship aspirations for years to come.

Dad’s Take on George Kirby
Look at this kid celebrating like he just won the World Series when he probably just got out of a bases-loaded jam in the third inning! Sure, the bio says he doesn't walk anybody, but with that baby face and dramatic fist pump, he looks like he'd get rattled by a Little League crowd chanting his name. Put on a poker face, son – save the theatrics for when you actually accomplish something that matters!
