In his Instagram bio, Lorenzen references Romans 1:16, and he has 116 tattooed on his arm. “I want to do exactly what this man did on the pier for me,” said Lorenzen. “I want to use baseball to do that for thousands and thousands of people. Ever since then, that was really the turning point of my life.”
After Lorenzen’s no-hitter, his mother, Cheryl Lorenzen, tweeted, “Incredible night my son. No one is more deserving [than] you. The Lord has been so good to you! Stay strong in your faith and keep pushing through!”
