It’s not unusual for a pitcher to get hit by a comebacker, but not in the way Mariners pitcher George Kirby was on Tuesday night.
During his start against the Astros at T-Mobile Park in Seattle, Kirby was on the mound in the sixth inning when he got hit by a ball… that came from the stands.
The 25-year-old right-hander had held Houston scoreless into the frame, and with slugger Kyle Tucker at the plate, Kirby got ahead in the count 1-2 after the outfielder fouled off the third pitch of the at-bat.
