Danny Jansen to Make MLB History by Playing for Two Teams in One Game
The Red Sox catcher will become the first player to appear for both teams in a single Major League game when Boston and Toronto resume their suspended matchup.
- Jansen was traded from the Blue Jays to the Red Sox in July, weeks after the game was suspended.
- He will catch for the Red Sox while a pinch hitter takes his place for the Blue Jays.
- This unique situation arose because Jansen was at bat for Toronto when the game was halted.
- Red Sox manager Alex Cora confirmed Jansen's role in the historic game.
- Jansen has hit .257 with two home runs since joining Boston.
