The thread title is the first five words of this Sports Network recap.

First thing that popped into my head? "Who the bleep is Runelvys Hernandez?"

According to this, "Hernandez [4-8] was stellar in the win, holding Toronto to seven hits while striking out four and walking one in his first career complete-game shutout." So is this kid Hernandez a rookie? A rising star? Any Royals fans out there got the story on this Kansas City hurler?

I am not a Royals fan at all, but I scooped up some information and numbers about this Runelvys Hernandez. You don't have to thank me, because this is part of my job here as the MLB Moderater.
