The Mets on Saturday called up right-handed pitcher Eric Orze from Tiple-A Syracuse. Orze, the Mets’ fifth-round draft pick in 2020 is a two-time cancer survivor with a truly touching story. The corresponding roster move was right-handed pitcher Ty Adcock being optioned back down to Triple-A.
Colin Chatto discussed Orze’s call-up in an article for Metsmerized.

Per Major League Baseball, Minnesota Twins infielder Jose Miranda broke the MLB Expansion Era record (since 1961) record for most consecutive at-bats with a base hit at 12. It ties the MLB all-time record last achieved by Walt Drapo in 1952. Those hits were: single-double-single-double-single-double-single-double-home run and three more singles.
