When someone asks you, “How was your Friday night?”, you probably have some run of-the-mill response that involves either partying, hanging out with friends, or maybe even going to the baseball game. Or all three, in which case we’re not judging, live your life, dude.
Michael A. Taylor’s night was a little more, how do we say, historic.
It started off innocently enough, with the bases loaded and a little looper to center. That ended up flying over centerfielder Odubel Herrerra’s head, allowing Taylor to score, on what was ruled an inside-the-park grand slam.
Then, in the top of the seventh, a base hit up the middle fell right in front of Taylor.
