Yermín Mercedes

Yermín Mercedes' historic night at the plate placed him in rare company. The slugging catcher became the first player in MLB history to go 5-for-5 in his first career start. There has only been one other player since 1900 to record at least 5 hits in their first career start: Cecil Travis in 1933. Yermín's night included four singles and a double while driving in four runs.
