Pat Light Biography

Pat Light is one of the most popular and richest Professional Baseball Player who was born on March 29, 1991 in Colts Neck, New Jersey, United States. Patrick James Light (born March 29 1991) is an American Former professional baseball player. He was a part of Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Boston Red Sox and Minnesota Twins.

As a high school pitcher, Light posted a 20-0 record and an 1.52 earn-run average at Christian Brothers Academy in New Jersey and went on to record the most successful season record for a single season in Shore Conference history.

Light delivered a solid start to his 2015 season after being moved to the bullpen. He now regularly reaches 94–96 mph with his heavy fastball, reportedly touched 100 mph at times, and reintroduced a splitter, which he had used successfully before being drafted in 2012. As a result, Light went 1–1 with a 2.43 ERA and three saves in 21 games at Double-A Portland, allowing 11 walks and striking out 32 in 29⅔ innings, while holding opponents to a .168 batting average. He then earned a promotion to the Triple-A Pawtucket Red Sox in the month of June. Light was 3–5 with five saves and a 3.88 ERA in the two stints, totaling 62⅔ innings pitched to go with 67 strikeouts and 37 walks.

After making 49 starts over his first three seasons, Light was told he would be changing roles and throwing out of the bullpen when he reported to Double-A Portland Sea Dogs to open the 2015 season. With the Red Sox relief pitchers finishing last in fastball average velocity in 2014, and giving another hard- throwing prospect Matt Barnes a chance as a reliever, the organization decided to increase velocity out of the bullpen more than it had before.

Light has an 90-95 mph fastball that was heavy, that could reach an average speed of 97mph. Light also has a slider that is 85-87 mph and a 79-81 mph changeup is a work-in-progress development. He was envisioned as an reliever with huge possibility as a setting player or closer.
