Nathan Karns (born November 25, 1987) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Washington Nationals of Major League Baseball.

Career

Karns attended James W. Martin High School in Arlington, Texas, where he played for the school's baseball team.[1] He enrolled at Texas Tech University, where he played college baseball for the Texas Tech Red Raiders baseball team.

In the 2009 draft, the Nats selected Karns 12th round, but his professional career was delayed as he had shoulder surgery in 2010, and didn't make his minor league debut until 2011.[2]

In 2012, he started in single-A Hagerstown, and then was promoted to AA Potomac. His combined record was 11–4,[3] and was named the Nationals Minor Pitcher of the Year in 2012.[4] He was added to the 40-man roster on November 20, 2012.

When Ross Detwiler suffered an injury, Karns was called up to take his place in the pitching rotation, and made his major league debut on May 28, 2013.[5] He started, and lasted 4+13 innings, allowing three earned runs, five hits, and two walks, in a game the Nats won, 9–3.[6]
