Cameron Mingo Signs With Cleveland Indians
August 09, 2016 | Baseball
Before the Princeton baseball team could put together its wild rally against Yale to take Game 3 of the Ivy League Championship Series, Cameron Mingo put eight straight "zeroes" up on the scoreboard, keeping the Tigers in the game and the season alive.
Mingo gave up one run in the first and none the rest of the way on that chilly Sunday in May at Clarke Field, and he earned the win when Princeton scored twice in the bottom of the ninth. He then pitched in the NCAA regional against Sam Houston State.
The end of the Princeton season did not mean the end of Mingo's career. Mingo, who graduated this past spring, has signed a contract with the Cleveland Indians and will now report to their Rookie League team in Arizona.
Mingo, a 6-4 righthander from Minnesota, tied for the Ivy League lead with six wins in the 2016 season while starting 10 games and pitching 59 innings, second on the team. Off the field, he was also the Ivy League's National Student Athlete Advisory Committee representative for two years.
