In a stunning turn of events, Dietrich Enns made his triumphant return to the majors by throwing 5 scoreless innings as the Detroit Tigers trounced the Oakland A’s 8-0. Enns, who had been toiling away in the minors for what seemed like an eternity, finally got his chance to shine on the big stage once again.
“I can’t believe it, I actually did it!” exclaimed Enns after the game. “I was so nervous out there, but once I started throwing those strikes, it was like I was back in my prime.”
Enns’ stellar performance had his teammates and coaches singing his praises. Tigers manager Ron Gardenhire was particularly impressed, saying, “Dietrich really stepped up when we needed him. He was like a man possessed out there, throwing those pitches like he was playing a game of darts.”
Even the A’s were left scratching their heads at Enns’ dominance. “I don’t know what that guy had for breakfast, but I want some of whatever it was,” joked A’s pitcher Sean Manaea. “He made us look like a bunch of little leaguers out there.”
Enns’ success on the mound had fans buzzing with excitement, with one fan exclaiming, “I never thought I’d see the day when Dietrich Enns would be the hero of a Tigers game! It’s like a real-life underdog story come to life.”
As for Enns himself, he’s just grateful for the opportunity to prove himself once again. “I may not be the flashiest player out there, but I know how to get the job done,” Enns said with a smile. “And hey, if this whole baseball thing doesn’t work out, maybe I’ll try my hand at competitive eating. I hear they’re always looking for new talent.”
