plenty of good plunks still available in the 2009 season
HBPs of note: October 2, 2009
Eleven plunks were thrown in Friday's baseball action, and 6 of them were recorded in the 8th inning of various games. That's the most 8th inning plunks in a single day of baseball since August 29, 2004. It's only the second day this season on which 6 batters have been plunked in a particular inning - joining the 7th inning of April 10th.
Alex Gonzalez got hit twice for the Red Sox yesterday, and managed to get those two plunks from two different pitchers who had hit him once before - Jeremy Sowers and Kerry Wood.
Melvin Mora got his 110th career HBP, putting him at 51st place on the all time list, tied with George Burns. He's now been hit 58 times at Camden Yards, which is just 8 away from Brady Anderson's park record 66.
