Lane Thomas

Rookie Lane Thomas’s moment came in the sixth inning of Friday’s 5-4 loss to the Mets when he was sent to the plate as a pinch-hitter marking his first MLB at-bat. On an 0-1 slider from reliever Seth Lugo, Thomas drove a pitch to deep right. He knew he had notched his first hit and RBI, but it wasn’t until a 29-second crew chief review confirmed that the ball had cleared the right-field wall that Thomas was awarded the final 90 feet of his trip around the bases.
