Quick Notes: Washington Nationals prospect Cole Henry fans five in three hitless innings on April 22

Stephanie Sheehan from MLB.com, reported that Washington Nationals pitching prospect Cole Henry "has only gone three innings in each of his first three starts, but he’s been nothing short of impressive every time. His performance in Double-A Harrisburg’s 7-2 win over Reading was no exception. The No. 3 prospect didn’t allow a hit and walked one while fanning five, all on swings and misses."

"Henry struck out three of the first six batters he faced before he walked a batter on four pitches, the lone blemish on his outing. He quickly bounced back with a four-pitch strikeout and needed just 10 pitches to finish his final inning, capping off his effort with a second strikeout of Phillies No. 21 prospect Simon Muzziotti. Henry tossed 28 of his 44 pitches for strikes."

"The 22-year-old has allowed just three hits and two walks in nine innings this season while racking up 12 strikeouts in that span."
