The stats for the former Rice product through three games: two hits, one walk, one RBI, and one jersey fail.

We’ve seen players with misspelled last names, or even no name on the back of the jersey, but I believe this is the first time we’ve seen a misplaced number.

The Pirates didn’t find it at all amusing:

Phew, good thing they determined the mistake was made by humans. I was worried some jersey-altering ferrets had gotten loose in the Pirates’ clubhouse.
