HBPs of note - April 17, 2009

Kevin Youkilis got hit by a pitch thrown by Danys Baez in last night's Red Sox-Orioles game - which makes a nice round 40 hit batsmen in Baez's career. Youk's plunk was his 43rd career HBP, but it was also the 3,900th in Red Sox franchise history.

Also, Atlanta's Brian McCann felt the impact of piracy as Pittsburgh's Paul Maholm hit him with two pitches yesterday. He's the first batter this season to get plunked twice in one game by the same pitcher. Maholm is the first Pirate's pitcher to hit the same batter twice in a game since Dan Serafini plunked Fernando Vina twice on August 22, 2000.
