Nick Green chases Red Sox record

HBPs of Note: April 20, 2009

Nick Green got hit by a pitch for the Red Sox yesterday. That's his 2nd of the season, which leads the team. He only needs to get hit 34 more times this year to break Don Baylor's single season record with Boston. That could be just the piece of information the Red Sox need to keep Green in the lineup when Julio Lugo returns from his injury. Green got plunked by Radhames Liz, who also threw David Ortiz his 25th career plunk later in that same inning.

Also yesterday, Rafael Soriano of the Braves threw his 10th career hit batsmen, plunking Washington's Josh Willingham. And Houston's LaTroy Hawkins plunked Paul Janish of the Reds, but it is not yet clear what significance that might have had. Yet.
