Ouch! Check out the painful history Cincinnati Reds TJ Friedl made Friday night

NEW YORK – Almost lost in the shadows of an impressive comeback victory by the Cincinnati Reds over the New York Mets in their first game out of the All-Star break was the history leadoff man TJ Friedl made. That's history as in, "Ouch!" The Reds center fielder was hit by pitches three times Friday night – by three different pitchers – in the third, fifth and eighth innings.

He became the second Reds batter in the modern (post-1900) era to pull off that painful feat, joining Derek Dietrich (June 21, 2019, at Milwaukee). It also tied a major-league record held by many. 'That's what I was told,' Friedl said with a quick laugh. 'It's a painful record. But it's a record.' Friedl said the only one that really hurt was the last one that hit him on the fleshy part of the hand. But he didn't need to check in with trainers at any point and doesn't expect to be out of the lineup Saturday. Friedl scored twice after getting hit as the Reds took an 8-2 lead into the ninth inning (eventually winning 8-4) behind the seven innings of impressive pitching from starter Nick Lodolo (3.33 ERA this season) and home runs from Austin Hays (two), Matt McLain and Tyler Stephenson.

Reds outfielder TJ Friedl gets hit by pitch 3 times against Mets, tying MLB record

Photo by Jay LaPrete / AP Photo NEW YORK — Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Cincinnati Reds outfielder TJ Friedl tied a major league record Friday night when he was hit by a pitch three times — by three different New York Mets hurlers. The 5-foot-8 Friedl was plunked on the left forearm by a 91 mph fastball from left-hander Sean Manaea in the third inning and on the left foot by an 85 mph slider from right-handed reliever Alex Carrillo in the fifth. Mets lefty Brandon Waddell then drilled Friedl on the left hand with a 91 mph sinker in the eighth. 'The lefties, it makes more sense because everything is away and I'm trying to stick my nose in there,' Friedl said. 'The last one, that one stung!'

It's happened to 34 different players — the only previous Reds batter was Derek Dietrich at Milwaukee on June 21, 2019. Two other major leaguers have been plunked three times in a game this season: Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams on May 31 at Arizona, and Colorado's Tyler Freeman on June 17 at Washington. Batting leadoff, Friedl finished 0 for 2 but scored twice in an 8-4 victory over the Mets. He expects to be in the lineup Saturday and joked that he didn't want a day off anyway.
