Opening day baseball weirdness

[somebodyshotmypaw]

A player from Sacramento State had 8 plate appearances in a game, and was hit by a pitch 7 times. It’s a safe assumption that he now leads the nation in HBP.

8 appearances in a double header.
What is even crazier is they pinch hit for him in what would have been his 9th, and the PH got hit by a pitch

Oops. I missed the doubleheader part. But still hit 7 times in 8 plate appearances.

He got hit more in two games than anyone on our team did the entire season last year (except for Larry and Hancock).

This reminds me why I really liked some of Cohen's teams. He had some real "dirtbag" types on his teams. They got hit HBP a lot.

We had a lot more at the ballfield than LSU, but that had more tickets distributed
