Top prospect Jack Leiter pitched a brilliant no-hitter and looked exactly like his father Al

Like father, SO MUCH like son.

Jack Leiter is a top prospect for the upcoming Major League Baseball draft, which is easily the biggest crapshoot of any draft — by a lot.

Still, Leiter sure seems to have all the right stuff to make it to the bigs. The right-handed sophomore tossed a 16-strike-out no-hitter on Saturday in Vanderbilts’ 5-0 win over South Carolina. It would have been a perfect game had he not walked the lead-off hitter.

Leiter is a fun pitcher to watch. His fastball isn’t overpowering but has movement, and he has a biting curveball.

Also, if you happen to remember watching his father Al Leiter pitch, you’ll never, ever get over the similarities in their deliveries:

Striking.

Al Leiter pitched nearly two decades in the majors, winning three World Series (1992 and ’93 with the Blue Jays, ’97 with the Marlins when he started Game 7), before working in television. He joined the Mets as a baseball operations advisor in 2019.
