Francisco Rodriguez: Hitting Machine

[brewerjamie15]

In case you did not know, K-Rod is a hitting mad man. Just curious, but has any other relief pitcher gone 10+ years and then gotten is first hit?

They just showed it on MLB Network and Dan Plesac is one of the analysts. He also had one major league hit in his career and they showed it as well. The date: August 12, 1995. Exact same day 16 years ago.

Loved the reaction of the bullpen as they watched on TV.

I'm curious who had August 12 in the "On what date will Prince and K-Rod both have infield hits?" pool?

 

Very fun game last night.

Why wouldn't this be on the brewers highlights from last nights game. I heard Ueck's call on the radio but want to see the video

If you watch the game highlights on MLB it is there but I did not see the bullpen reaction.

It's here in the full highlight. What a great way to get your first career MLB hit. They didn't have a slow motion video on MLB.com, but it looked like he might not have been safe.

Saw the replay on MLB Network and if he was out, it was by a hair. Probably a tie. Disclaimer: I only watched it once in regular speed.
