Javier Báez did something Tuesday that had been done just once before in MLB history

Yes, there have been a lot of articles here recently featuring former Cub Javier Báez, and this one comes because Javy, after being involved in a kerfuffle with Mets fans over the weekend, had himself a day Tuesday in New York.

The Mets and Marlins were playing a split “doubleheader.” I put doubleheader in quotes for a reason, because the first game was actually the completion of a suspended game that had been started April 11 at Citi Field and went just nine pitches before heavy rain made it impossible to continue. They probably never should have started play that afternoon.
