Matt Davidson pulls a Babe Ruth, continues to be poster child for baseball's position player pitching trend

Matt Davidson pulled a Babe Ruth on Monday night.

Generally, when you do something only The Bambino has done on a baseball field, that’s a good thing. At least it’s noteworthy.

Davidson made his third pitching appearance of the 2018 season in the White Sox loss to the visiting New York Yankees, a fulfillment of the desire he expressed after his previous outing not two weeks ago, when he said he hoped to explore an expansion of his pitching role.

He recorded his third scoreless inning in as many outings. His career ERA is still an unblemished 0.
