#TIYH back in 2008 . Confusion erupts in a New York-Penn League game between the Staten Island Yankees and Brooklyn Cyclones. Switch-hitting Brooklyn DH Ralph Henriquez Jr. steps to the plate from the right side against PAT VENDITTE, the minor leagues' first ambidextrous pitcher of the century. Henriquez then decides he will hit left-handed and Venditte promptly switches his glove to the right hand. Henriquez again calls time and switches sides. The shuffle continues several times before the umpires and managers decide that the batter must declare first from which side he will bat and that players can only switch once per at-bat. Venditte, throwing from the right side, winds up whiffing Henriquez on four pitches. . #PatVenditte #Circa2008 #BackInTheDay . #28thQuest #MightyYankees #NYY #NewYorkYankees #NYYankees #pinstripes #StartSpreadingTheNews #MLB #baseball #ILoveThisGame #BaseballFans #YankeesFan #designbyBiGGiE (at Brooklyn Cyclones Baseball - Mcu Park)
