Reds outfielder TJ Friedl gets hit by pitch 3 times against Mets, tying MLB record

NEW YORK, JUL 19 – TJ Friedl became the 39th player in MLB history to be hit by pitches three times in one game, all by different Mets pitchers, contributing to the Reds' 8-4 win.

  • Reds outfielder TJ Friedl was struck by pitches from three different Mets pitchers during Friday night's game, matching a major league record.
  • This marked the 39th time since 1901 a hitter was plunked three times in one game and made Friedl the second Reds player to achieve this.
  • Friedl was hit on the left forearm by Sean Manaea’s 91 mph fastball in the third inning, on the left foot by Alejandro Carrillo’s 85 mph slider in the fifth, and on the left hand by Brandon Waddell’s 91 mph sinker in the eighth.
  • Friedl went 0-for-2 but managed to score twice in the Reds’ 8-4 victory over the Mets, explaining that facing left-handed pitchers suits him since the pitches tend to move away, and he tries to get his bat head out front.
  • He declined a day off, did not see trainers during the game, and expects to be in the lineup on Saturday.
