Jun 5, 2018; Minneapolis, MN, USA; Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Zack Littell (56) makes his major league debut in the first inning against Chicago White Sox at Target Field.

MINNEAPOLIS, MN -- Eastern Alamance High School alum Zack Littell made his Major League Baseball debut Tuesday night.

Littell started on the mound for the Minnesota Twins in game two of a doubleheader with the Chicago White Sox.

Littell got his Major League career off to a fast start, striking out Yoan Moncada in the first at-bat of the game.

The White Sox did catch up to Littell shortly after that. The Alamance County native gave up a double and then a two-run home run to Jose Abreu. By the end of the night, Littell pitched three innings and gave up six hits and six runs as the Twins fell 6-3.

Minnesota recalled Littell from the Rochester Red Wings on Tuesday to play in the game.
