For those of you unfamiliar...Adam Greenberg made it to the majors seven years ago and made one plate appearance for the Cubs against the Marlins. He came to the plate in the 9th inning in a late season game and was then struck in the head by a fast ball ending his dreams...concussion, blurred vision, pain all kept him out of baseball...
Earlier this year an amateur filmmaker started a social media campaign to get him an official major league at-bat (hbp did not count as an at-bat). Yesterday, the Marlins announced that they would give him one major league at-bat on Oct. 2nd. They got permission from MLB, the MLBPA, and the Comish. office to make this happen. Moonlight Graham will be smiling down on the MLB on Oct. 2nd. Joshua |
