Moderators Gerry Hamilton Posted August 16 Moderators Posted August 16 Hellacious start to a career https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/49621644/cardinals-rookie-joshua-baez-makes-history-3-hrs-debut 4 Quote
Dawson Yarbrough Posted August 16 Posted August 16 Saw him homer on his first ever swing. Went and did some yard work outside for a couple hours. I should not have went outside. I missed the best MLB debut in history! 1 Quote
DanielOnorato Posted August 16 Posted August 16 Ridiculous debut. Somebody paid 27 bucks for him in my baseball fantasy league last week. I guess he was worth it. Quote
Neil Leininger Posted August 16 Posted August 16 I saw on X today that a $10 bet (HR in 1st 3 ABs) would have netted over $7M in payouts. 2 Quote

Bobby Burton Posted August 16 Posted August 16 Give me a better start to a sports career anywhere?!? Quote

cmk4pres Posted August 16 Posted August 16 His cards are out of control already. Tap the brakes but unreal game 1 Quote
MarkInAustin Posted August 16 Posted August 16 Also, in 1950, Whitey Ford, age 21, called up from the minors, went 9 and 1. Spent the next two years in the military, but came back in 1953 and went 18 and 6, proving it was no fluke. A seasonal debut, not a first game effort, but it was pretty amazing when it happened.
