Just two months into Ian Anderson's big league career, the Shenendehowa pitching product will face his biggest challenge.
Anderson will take the mound for the Atlanta Braves in Game 7 of the National League Championship Series on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Anderson has been lights out so far this postseason. In three games, Anderson has yet to give up a run, and his teammates have full confidence in his ability to close out the series.
"Without a doubt, I have 100% confidence in Ian Anderson," fellow pitcher Max Fried said after Game 6. "He is prepared and as smart as they come."
Anderson will be the youngest postseason Game 7 starter since Jaret Wright did so for the Cleveland Indians in 1997.
