Minneapolis — The Tigers’ Andrew Romine gained a measure of super-utility player immortality Saturday. He became the fifth player in the history of major league baseball to play all nine positions in one game.
“That was something else,” he said. “I was trying to focus as much as I could without getting caught up in the moment and all the moving around. It got hectic, but it was a lot of fun.”
Romine caught the first out of the game playing left field, he caught the last out of the game playing first base, and he got one of the biggest outs pitching in the eighth inning and the Tigers beat the Twins 3-2.
