Tucker Davidson

Davidson attended Tascosa High School in Amarillo, Texas, where he played baseball and American football.[1] He played college baseball at Midland College. He was drafted by the Atlanta Braves in the 19th round of the 2016 Major League Baseball draft.[2] Davidson ended his collegiate baseball career to sign with the Braves organization, instead of joining the NC State Wolfpack baseball team as he had planned.[2][3]

Davidson made his professional debut with the Gulf Coast Braves, going 0–3 with a 1.52 ERA in ​29 ²⁄₃ innings. He spent 2017 with the Rome Braves, pitching to a 5–4 record and 2.60 ERA in ​103 ²⁄₃ innings,[4] and 2018 with the Florida Fire Frogs, compiling a 7–10 record and 4.18 ERA in 14 starts.[5] He started 2019 with the Mississippi Braves and was named a Southern League All-Star[6] before being promoted to the Gwinnett Stripers.[7] Over 25 starts between both clubs, he went 8–7 with a 2.15 ERA, striking out 134 over ​129 ²⁄₃ innings.[8][9]

Davidson was added to the Braves 40–man roster following the 2019 season.[10] Before the 2020 Minor League Baseball season was canceled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Davidson was to begin the year at Gwinnett.[11] Instead, he was named to the Atlanta Braves' 60-member player pool for the shortened 2020 Major League Baseball season.[12][13] Davidson was promoted to the major leagues for the first time from the team's alternate site on September 25, 2020.[14][15] Davidson faced the Boston Red Sox the next day and took the loss, yielding two earned runs and seven total, in ​1 ²⁄₃ innings pitched.[16][17]
