April 17, 20187 yr McKenzie behind the plate? That must be a typo. Edit: I didn't read the tweet part. Pierce is getting too cute with this game. He needs to focus on winning it. Edited April 17, 20187 yr by Austin Orange
April 18, 20187 yr I'm not sure if this is true or not but I've heard that Mckenzie is playing all 9 positions tonight.

April 18, 20187 yr Author That's all for Stevens as Bocchi relieves him here in the 3rd. Hard to tell too much from this outing. I would like to see more.
April 18, 20187 yr And Mckenzie now at third. I'm glad we're leading by a good amount because he'll be pitching soon at this rate.
April 18, 20187 yr I think I see what’s going on now. Pierce is going to have McKensie play every position in this game.
April 18, 20187 yr So jake is going in order 2-9, then will pitch to close the game. Better be prepared for a short game, or let ridgeway pitch until it’s 13-6. Edited April 18, 20187 yr by Pato del Muerto
April 18, 20187 yr The run rule is always 10+ after 7. I believe the coaches have to agree in advance that it will apply and it is customary to do so on days where one team is traveling for the game.
April 18, 20187 yr Jake has some damn good downward and backs for movement on the ball. I'm impressed.
April 18, 20187 yr So, that's kind of cool for McKenzie. But it seems kind of gimmicky. Would Augie have done this?
April 18, 20187 yr Author Texas wins 13-2 in 7. Jake McKenzie played all 9 positions in the process. Edited April 18, 20187 yr by Horny Bull
April 18, 20187 yr Jake mckenzie.. played 9 positions in a 7 inning run rule win... catcher (watching muted with the wife, i called it here), 1st (started a key double play), 2nd (turned a nice DP catching the flip bare handed), 3rd, SS... then rotated thru the OF with each out in 6th inning when the run rule looked likely lol .. pitched final 2 outs in 7th. Crowd chanted "jake, jake, jake" after The Eyes It was gimmicky, but it was unique. Jake bunted to move 2 runners into scoring position when we were up 7, so i think he honored Augie there. He used 5 gloves.
