Former Boston College star Sal Frelick’s first game up in the big leagues was one for the record books.
The Lexington native and Brewers prized prospect left his fingerprints all over Milwaukee’s 4-3 win over the Braves on Saturday night.
Not only did Frelick record two highlight-reel catches in right field during the sixth inning, but he also went 3-for-3 at the plate with two RBI, driving in the eventual go-ahead run.
According to ESPN Stats and Info, Frelick is the first player in Brewers history to record three or more hits and two RBI in his MLB debut, and is the sixth player over the last 25 seasons with three hits and a game-winning RBI in his MLB debut.
