In a game with little offense, the uncommitted junior made his mark on the mound in his first start for Berkeley. The transfer from De Anza allowed only one run across five innings in the season opener for Berkeley, mixing in five strikeouts and only allowing three hits. With his fastball sitting at 88-89 mph across the outing, Henderson changed eye levels well against a righty-heavy lineup, working the pitch on the outer half for called strikes and getting chases above the zone. This played well with his breaking balls, containing multiple movement profiles, one with sweeping action and one with more vertical break. Henderson made good use of his breaking ball, particularly in his last inning of work, getting ahead early in the count and using it as a putaway pitch late. Throughout the start, Henderson generated a number of whiffs and made for an uncomfortable at bat.
