BIOGRAPHY
Hunter Harvey was born December 9, 1994, in Catawba, North Carolina. He is a pitcher in the MLB.
Harvey attended Bandys High School in Catawba, North Carolina. The Baltimore Orioles selected him in the first round of the 2013 Major League Baseball draft. He signed with the Orioles on June 20, 2013, and made his professional debut that season for the Gulf Coast Orioles of the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League. In August he was promoted to the Aberdeen IronBirds of the Class A-Short Season New York-Penn League. Overall, he started eight games, pitching to a 0–1 win–loss record with a 1.78 earned run average (ERA) with 33 strikeouts in 25 1⁄3 innings pitched.
On August 17, 2019, Harvey was promoted to the major leagues. He made his major league debut that night versus the Boston Red Sox, striking out two batters over one scoreless inning. He was credited with his first major-league win in a 4–1 victory over the Kansas City Royals in his Camden Yards debut three nights later on August 20. After he kept the game tied at 1–1 by retiring all three batters he faced in his only inning of work, Hanser Alberto's three-run homer in the bottom of the eighth gave the Orioles its eventual winning margin.
On November 5, 2021, Harvey was claimed off waivers by the San Francisco Giants. He was designated for assignment on March 14, 2022, to create room on the roster for free agent signing Jakob Junis.
