SEATTLE, Wash. – Pitcher Matthew Brash has been called up by the Seattle Mariners, announced by the team on Tuesday. Brash is the first Niagara player since 1953 to be called up to the major leagues and the 17th player all-time, dating back to the late 1800's, to make it to the MLB level.

Brash, who was drafted by the San Diego Padres in the fourth round of the 2019 MLB Draft, was traded to the Mariners in 2020 and is Seattle's No. 10 prospect. He debuted as the No. 99 prospect in Baseball America's most recent Top 100 rankings.

Brash was called up to Triple-A Tacoma last Friday and could be an option out of the bullpen tonight or a starter later this week in Seattle's three-game series with Oakland. Brash will be eligible to be on Seattle's postseason roster if the Mariners advance.

Brash most recently played with the Double-A Arkansas Travelers. During the 2021 season, he appeared in 10 games for the Travelers and 10 games for the High-A Everett AquaSox. On the 2021 season, he compiled a 6-4 record. He tossed 97.1 innings and recorded 142 strikeouts with a 2.31 ERA. Brash held his opponents to an impressive average of just .162.

Brash had a phenomenal three-year career with the Purple Eagles. He was the 2019 MAAC Pitcher of the Year, the first-ever from Niagara. That season, he set the NU and MAAC single-season strikeouts record with 121 and was 10th in the country in strikeouts. His 2.43 ERA was the second-best in Niagara history in a single season.

Brash has multiple entries in the Niagara baseball record book. He has the second-best career ERA (2.97), the fourth-best winning percentage (.631), the second-most strikeouts (215) and is tied for third in shutouts (two).
