Tommy Pham Asked To Sit So Jace Peterson Could Hit In World Series 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon Oct 30, 2023 4:25 am

Calling it a \"true team moment,\" Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo had nothing but praise for outfielder/designated hitter Tommy Pham after the veteran offered to give up his final at-bat in Game 2 of the World Series on Saturday in order for teammate Jace Peterson to get a turn at the plate versus the Texas Rangers.

\"He came to me and he said, \'I need to you get my boy an [at-bat],\'\" Lovullo recalled on Sunday. \"And I said, \'Are you sure? 100 percent sure?\'\"
