Wake Up With Bartolo Colon's First Multi-Hit Game (2002)
Bartolo Colon AKA Big Sexy is about to enter his 20th major league season. Two decades of destruction. The man has thrown over three thousand innings in the big leagues, but arguably his most memorable highlight is his first and only major league home run. In his 302 career plate appearances, he only has 25 hits, so that home run and this multi-hit game from 2002 account for 12% of the damage that he’s done at the plate in two decades. I’ll be honest, though — those are two pretty hard-hit balls. No dinky bloopers here. How in the hell does he only have one home run? If you can hit the ball that hard, you’ve gotta luck into more than just one over 20 years, no?
