Getting to the big leagues at all is an incredible accomplishment. Among the millions of college and professional baseball players who have stepped onto the diamond in the last century and a half, just barely 20,000 players achieved the status of Major League Baseball ballplayer.
Nick Pratto is one of those guys, and he’ll be able to proudly say that he was an MLB player to future generations. Even more impressively, he is one of the 9,222 humans in history who know what it feels like to swing a piece of lumber at a baseball and deposit it over the fence for an MLB home run.
