Two right-handed pitchers, Billy McKay and Nick Long, and outfielder\/right-handed pitcher Austin Bodrato will be joining the Kingfish this summer following their freshman seasons at Florida.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMcKay stands 5&rsquo;11&rdquo; and 205 pounds and is a native of Plant City, Florida. He joined the Gators after a stellar high school career. In 156.1 career high school innings, McKay held a remarkable 1.16 ERA with 180 strikeouts and just 31 walks. The right-hander also threw two no-hitters during his junior year. He signed his letter of intent to Florida in November, 2015.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tLong is a 6&rsquo;0&rdquo;, 195-pound righty from Sarasota, Florida. He came to Florida as the sixth-ranked right-handed pitcher in Florida, and the No. 23-ranked overall player. He was a talented two-way player in high school, batting .415 with four homers in his senior season, but opted to stay on the mound heading to college. As a freshman, he has appeared in two of Florida&rsquo;s 13 games this season.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBodrato is a 6&rsquo;0&rdquo;, 195-pound, left-handed hitting outfielder and right-handed pitcher from Montgomery, New York. He chose to pursue a college career at Florida even after being drafted in the 24<sup>th<\/sup> round by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 2016 draft. Like Long and McKay, Bodrato was one of his state&rsquo;s top right-handed high school pitchers, and is listed as a two-way player at Florida. He batted .412 with eight home runs in his high school career, and has appeared in one game in the outfield for Florida this season.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tTickets and merchandise for your Kenosha Kingfish are&nbsp;on sale now.
