STATS INCREDIBLE!

183: Hall of Famers batted just .201/.276/.317 in 183 plate appearances against Dontrelle Willis … and if that is not enough, Barry Bonds had just a .511 OPS in 15 plate appearances against him.

130: Juan Pierre’s career plate appearances with the bases loaded. He batted .381/.408/.487 and struck out just twice.

2.19: Jose Fernandez had a 2.19 ERA in 2016; it was the lowest by a first-year pitcher in 103 years, when Reb Russell had a 1.90 ERA in 1913.

94.5: Mat Latos’s ERA after his first start of 2015, AND The Kingdom: Miami’s Spiritual Easy Listening Station.

188: Career stolen bases of Dee Gordon, through five seasons—more than his father, Tom Gordon, allowed during his 21-year career (167).

0.4: Juan Pierre’s WAR in 2005, playing in all 162 games. Barry Bonds had a 0.6, playing in just 14 games.

9.02%: 200 of Pierre’s 2,217 (or 9.02 percent) career hits were bunt-hits.

41: Times Pierre faced Hall of Famer Greg Maddux in his career. He batted .342 and never struck out. Only Tony Gwynn faced Maddux more times without a K. He faced future Hall of Famer Curt Schilling 40 times, batting .385 and striking out just once.

5,136: Days between Suzuki’s first home runs for both the Mariners (2001) and Marlins (2015). He’s the first Japanese-born player to homer for each franchise.

25.1: Stanton’s cumulative WAR from his age twenty to twenty-five seasons, with 181 home runs in 708 games. Miguel Cabrera, had 4.1 fewer WAR, and six fewer home runs, despite 172 more games during his age twenty to twenty-five seasons.

1: On August 15, 2018, José Ureña became the first pitcher to be ejected after hitting a batter with the first pitch of the game during (at least) the Live Ball Era.

35: In 2017, Giancarlo Stanton and Marcell Ozuna became the first Marlins teammates ever to each hit at least 35 home runs in a season … so they traded them.

42: In 2015, Dee Gordon became the first player to lead the National League in batting average and stolen bases since Jackie Robinson in 1949.
