Groome had a strong start to Portland’s season and continued to improve as it went on.

It hasn’t been an easy road for the pitcher. Groome underwent Tommy John surgery in May 2018 and announced his return to action that November in a video update. Since then he’s been on the right path and clearly making a good impression in Portland.

The WooSox are in the middle of a six-game road trip before next week’s All-Star break and will return to Polar Park on July 22.
