Tannis Lange is giving NKU a lefty weapon with swing-and-miss upside
In the 2026 season, Northern Kentucky left-hander Tannis Lange has worked in a multi-role pitching mix, posting a 2-2 record with 36 strikeouts across 36.1 innings in 24 appearances, while also logging multiple scoreless outings and a 2.2-inning, five-strikeout gem against Youngstown State. He’s the kind of arm coaches trust in leverage because he can miss bats, handle both starts and relief, and settle games down when the Norse need a stopgap. The fit is strong for teams that value a versatile, competitive southpaw with real bat-missing ability and room to keep sharpening consistency.
