The weirdest MLB debut EVER!

Reserve catcher George Kottaras made his major league debut on Saturday, taking over for Tek in the 7th and leading off the bottom half of the inning.

But his first at-bat as strange as they come. Kottaras struck out, but reached on a passed ball... then he managed to reach second on a fielding error ... THEN Ellsbury grounded into a fielder's choice, advancing George to third... and Kevin Cash, who pinch hit for Pedroia, finally drove him in with a sac fly.

The Sox scored a run, but nobody got a hit and it all started with a strikeout. And as if that wasn't wacky enough... Kevin Cash filled in at third base in the 8th - for the first time ever...

And then this happened...














Thanks to Mike for the factoid.
