Fresno State’s hometown workhorse on the rise
In the 2026 season, Tyler Patrick gave Fresno State a steady, local-arm presence: the sophomore right-hander led the Bulldogs with 57.0 innings, made 18 appearances and nine starts, and struck out 29 batters while handling a team-high workload among regular starters. He’s a durable, attack-the-zone pitcher with starter value and hometown grit, and Fresno State’s own feature story emphasized his importance as a starting righty. If your team wants a competitive, innings-eating arm with room to sharpen the strikeout ceiling, Patrick is a fit.
