EXL: Třebíč strengthens with the winner of PBW 2020 Homerun Derby
As we wrote yesterday, Nuclears Třebíč brought in American Justin Revels. Today we will look at another new name on their roster for the upcoming season. Třebíč signed Ryan Johnson, the player who beat Marek Chlup in the homerun derby at Prague Baseball Week in 2020.

Last year Johnson played for Bundesliga team Solingen Alligators, where he had 18.2 IP with 5.79 ERA. His BA went to .387, however, and so we are more likely to see him batting, rather than pitching next season.
