Red Sox Radio Claims Boston Leads MLB With Pinch-Hit HRs "By A Lot". They Have Hit 5. (Fact Check: 8 Teams Have Hit More; 2 Teams Have Hit Almost Twice As Many.)

WEEI's Will Flemming told Red Sox fans during Saturday afternoon's game against the Yankees that Boston has hit five pinch-hit home runs this season, the "most in the big leagues by a lot".

The on-air conversation occurred during Brock Holt's pinch-hitting appearance in the bottom of the sixth:

Joe Castiglione: Red Sox pinch hitters 21-for-58, that's a .362 average with an OPS of 1.146.

Flemming: Hmmmm.

Castiglione: Five pinch homers.

Flemming: Most in the big leagues by a lot.

Silly me, I looked it up.
