Episode Details

Tyler Tolbert just tied a major league record with hits in 12 straight plate appearances, joining baseball legends Johnny Kling and Walt Dropo — and did it in a wild comeback win against the Mets, smashing five hits in one game. The bat he used is headed to the Hall of Fame, and though he fell just short of breaking the record (retired on a fly ball in his final at-bat), the crowd and teammates erupted in celebration. A 13th-round draft pick turned sparkplug, Tolbert’s historic streak also included consecutive five-hit games — last seen in 1970. Despite the glory, he’s already back to work, proving that sometimes the most unexpected players become record-setters through grit and heart.
