“I remember the first game of his senior year,” McCarter said. "We were in Alabama, it was about 38 degrees and he lost 2-1. There were every bit of 15-20 scouts there, and he didn’t get fazed.
Matt was getting Cain’d before getting Cain’d was cool.

Didn't one of his teammates at Houston have more press heading into the spring before the draft?
Does anyone know who it was? Stuart Pomeranz maybe?

I haven’t looked it up, but I think it was one of the Lalor brothers; Conor Lalor, if I had to guess. The Pomeranzes came a few years later, iirc.

Cain got his first taste of playoff baseball as San Francisco faced Atlanta in the Divisional Series. And he responded, holding the Braves to one unearned run and seven hits in 6 2/3 innings in San Francisco’s 5-4, 11-inning Game 2 victory.
That’s certainly not how I remember that game going…
