After spending thirteen years in the lower leagues, Drew Maggi got his first RBI and big-league hit on Saturday during the Pirates-Nationals game. What you should know is as follows:
Maggi’s solo gave his squad a 13-0 lead. In the ninth, he added his first career extra-base hit with a double, and he scored on Miguel Andújar’s home run to make it 16-0 (one run scored by the Nationals in the bottom of the ninth).
Maggi was permitted to remain with the Bucs and play as the extra man for the doubleheader despite having been optioned to Double-A Altoona prior to the game. Before he got his first hit, he was down to his final strike in a 2-2 count against reliever Hobie Harris. He did not start the game.
After appearing in 1,155 games in the lower leagues, the 33-year-old became a national sensation when he was called up by the Pirates on April 23. The Pirates, who have emerged as a self-satisfying success story, currently lead the National League with 20 wins.
