Fun Fact of the Day:
There have been a decent amount of great hitting pitchers through the years, even some with power, making a home run by a pitcher inevitable. Sure a few homers a year by a slugging pitcher is pretty spectacular, but who is on top? Wes Ferrell is on top with 38 career round trippers, including having the most ever in one campaign back in 1931 with the Cleveland Indians, when he knocked 9 over the fence. Occasionally the reasoning behind a stud like this is that they were a former position player with a good bat, but not in Wes’ case. He was just a great all around athlete, who was so good as a hitter that a few times during his career he got called out to pinch hit; despite him being a starting pitcher.
