Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Sep 21, 2023 12:10 pm

Already running away with the National League Rookie of the Year award, Corbin Carroll made Major League history on Wednesday night.

In the Arizona Diamondbacks\' 7-1 win over the San Francisco Giants, the rookie hit his 25th home run and stole his 49th and 50th bases.

Carroll is the first rookie in Major League history to compile 25 or more home runs and 50-plus stolen bases.

He entered Wednesday’s game with an fWAR of 5.3, which was tied for the fourth-highest fWAR by a rookie since 1993.
