Watch the Yankees get nine straight hits off David Price

David Price Tigers

Last night the Yankees knocked Tigers left-hander David Price out of the game in the third inning for the worst start of the former Cy Young winner’s excellent career.

They did so by starting the inning with nine consecutive hits and here’s a crazy stat via Chris Herring of the Wall Street Journal: Price is the first pitcher to allow nine straight hits since Bob Forsh of the Astros in 1989.

MLB.com strung together video of all nine hits, which is weirdly mesmerizing to watch:

Prior to last night Price had allowed nine or more hits in a game 20 times in 175 career starts. And he’s now 1-2 with a 4.41 ERA in five starts since the Tigers acquired him from the Rays.
