St. Petersburg, Fla. (April 24, 2023) – Sod Poodles’ right-handed pitcher *Bryce Jarvis *has been named Texas League Pitcher of the Week for the week of April 17-23, the League announced today.

The Arizona Diamondbacks No. 25-rated prospect earned the award after turning in five no-hit innings in his lone start last week against the NW Arkansas Naturals (Double-A, Kansas City) on April 19. Jarvis tied his season-high with eight strikeouts during the game, his second straight start with eight punchouts.

Through three starts to begin the 2023 season, Jarvis is 2-1 with a 3.86 ERA and has 17 strikeouts, eight hits against him, while allowing eight runs (6 earned) across 14.0 IP.

The right-hander has now won Texas League Pitcher of the Week twice in his career, the first coming on April 17, 2022.
