Tyler Duffey

Tyler Duffey

Tyler Duffey graduated in 2009 from Bellaire High School and went on to play baseball at Rice University for three years. Then Duffey was drafted by the Minnesota Twins, just a few weeks after losing his mother, Shanna Duffey, to breast cancer. Recently, he played a game that would make his mother especially proud. He pitched his first professional game, and it was a no hitter. He threw 76 pitches: no hits, no walks, no errors. Duffey told the press he knew his mom was watching and that she had the “best seats” in Heaven.
