After 13 Years in Minors, 33-year-old Drew Maggi Gets His Shot in MLB with Pirates

Drew Maggi, a 33-year-old Double A infielder, has been promoted to join the Pittsburgh Pirates after 13 seasons and 1,155 games.
Maggi's promotion was announced by Callix Crabbe, the rookie manager of the Double-A Eastern League’s Altoona Curve, who praised Maggi's grit and exemplification of the club's values.
Maggi was in tears upon hearing the news and expressed gratitude for the opportunity.
Maggi has played over 1,000 games in the minor leagues with a .254 career batting average and 45 home runs.
It is unclear whether Maggi will get to play in a game as Pittsburgh is off on Monday.
