Jeff Hoffman gets hold, strikes out three

by | Mar 18, 2025

ECU alum Jeff Hoffman had another solid outing for the Toronto Blue Jays in Monday’s 6-5 win over the New York Yankees.

Hoffman came on in the fourth inning and got a strikeout to end the inning. In the fifth, he gave up a hit and walk but got all three outs via strikeout to end the threat.

Hoffman picked up his first hold of Spring Training.

This is the same game where former ECU star Carter Cunningham hit a solo home run with two outs and two strikes to win it for Toronto.
