TJ Friedl Shocks Baseball World by Tying MLB Record with Three Hit-by-Pitches in Single Game Against Mets!
NEW YORK — Man, talk about a night that hurts to recall! Cincinnati Reds’ speedster TJ Friedl found himself on the wrong side of some ruthless pitching Friday, getting hit not once, not twice, but three separate times by three different Mets pitchers. It’s a rare, almost bizarre feat that ties a major league record, and it’s got me sittin’ here shaking my head.
Friedl, standing a modest 5-foot-8, took the brunt of some blazing fastballs and nasty sliders — first a 91 mph heater to the left forearm from the crafty lefty Sean Manaea, then an 85 mph slider clunked his left foot courtesy of righty Alex Carrillo. Just when you’d think he’d catch a break, Mets’ southpaw Brandon Waddell laid into him again in the eighth inning with a 91 mph sinker straight to his left hand.
