Sports is all about testing the limits of every athlete under physical and mental stress. The world has experienced the same in baseball. Given the roughness, it demands a lot from the players. Because of it performing at every opportunity and maintaining the same strength, form is also a crucial part. As the MLB season is in progress, the same is the demand of the hour, which the Tampa Bay star Alek Manoah fulfilled in a comeback win.

Given it was his first MLB appearance after his recent assignment at the Florida Complex League Yankees, all eyes were on Manoah. The 2022 All-star pitcher made the opportunity count with a brilliant performance. Though many fans appreciated him for his return, few were still unimpressed with his outing.

Alek Manoah shines on his MLB return

Manoah had a great last season, which put him on the All-Star team. Though since then, things did not move well for him. Apart from poor performances, his off-the-field controversies put him under the negative spotlight. With no performances, the Blue Jays sent him to play in a league below the collegiate level. It made it to the highlights, and many even wonder if he can make a comeback. But a change has followed, which has surprised everyone.
