It's happened to everyone. You're rushing out the door, already late for your destination, when you realize a critical part of your departure is missing—your car keys have vanished. Now imagine that happened on the way to your big league debut, like it did for Marcelo Mayer on Saturday, when the prized Boston Red Sox prospect was called up for his MLB debut before the night game in the team's doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles.
The franchise's top infield prospect was thrilled when he learned he'd need to head from Triple A Worchester to make it to Fenway Park to play for the big league club that night. Except the trip he'd waited his whole baseball career to make was delayed because he couldn't locate his car keys.
