It’s never too late to chase your dreams. Or in Brandon Crawford’s case, it’s never too late to prove that one of the hardest things to do in sports is just a walk in the park.
Crawford spent his entire 12-year major league career at shortstop until Sunday, when he took the mound to close out a lopsided Giants win against the Cubs—and didn’t allow a single run. After the game, Crawford took a fun shot at his pitching counterparts.
“I always give pitchers a hard time about it not being that hard,” said Crawford, who touched 90 mph with his fastball. “I think I proved today that it’s not. They probably don’t love that I have a 0.00 ERA, because I’ll continue to give them a hard time about it.”
