LISTEN TO THIS CHIPPER: 14 RBI IN THREE-GAME STRETCH
Independent Baseball Insider (Vol. 7, No. 15, June 11, 2009 ) By Bob Wirz
Fort Worth, TX first baseman-DH Pat O’Sullivan (pictured) had an amazing three-game stretch in which he drove in 14 runs, including eight in a single American Association affair. To put this into some type of perspective, renowned Atlantic Braves third baseman Chipper Jones recently tied his career high with five RBI in a game. The 32-year-old O’Sullivan nearly matched that count for three consecutive games.
O’Sullivan has bounced between Independent leagues and Triple-A for most of his 10-year professional career without sniffing the major leagues. He has compiled career totals of 181 homers and 723 runs batted in with the addition of his eight circuit clouts and 26 RBI (in 26 games) for the Cats this season. He is hitting .326 this year.
The right-handed hitter has been on Independent scorecards in the Texas-Louisiana and Central Leagues in addition to four of the eight active leagues. He also appeared in American Association games for Coastal Bend (Robstown, TX), was with Camden, NJ of the Atlantic League, Alexandria, LA when it was still in the United League and Schaumburg, IL of the Northern League.
