Ryan Merritt is pretty happy that fans took care of his wedding registry

Ryan Merritt had just one MLB start under his belt before he pitched 4 1/3 shutout innings in ALCS Game 5. Now, he has two MLB starts … and a whole bunch of towels, muffin tins and pizza cutters. Fans wanted to show their appreciation for Merritt's stellar performance, so they started buying him gifts from his wedding registry.

Merritt appreciates all of the fan support. Click play on the video above to hear him say thanks (though he didn't clarify when the reception is and whether we can bring a plus one).
