Hank Conger and Mark Trumbo Debuts

Stay connected for news and updates

Have two players ever debuted in the big leagues back-to-back as pinch hitters?

Okay smarty pants, when else in baseball history did it happen where the first guy they were pinch hitting for had a jersey whose numbers added up to 10 and each of their jerseys added up to 10?

Hank Conger and Mark Trumbo officially entered the big leagues. Conger pinch hit for Hideki Matsui as DH (jersey #55), and wore jersey #64 while Trumbo, wearing jersey #37, followed, pinch hitting for Mike Napoli at 1B (jersey #44). For the record, Trumbo replaced Napoli in the field at 1B while Conger was the DH of record. Neither had another plate appearance in the game.
