Arizona Diamondbacks catcher James McCann tied an MLB record by becoming the first position player to pitch in four games before May, matching Christian Bethancourt’s record from 2017. In a 13-1 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers, McCann allowed one unearned run, reducing his season ERA from 15.00 to 11.25. Meanwhile, infielder Ildemaro Vargas extended his hit streak to 23 games, ranking among the longest in franchise history. Despite the struggles, manager Torey Lovullo expressed his discontent with using position players as pitchers.
