Came across this interesting piece of trivia on Fox earlier
BOSTON (AP) — Boston Red Sox catcher Danny Jansen is enjoying his odd slice of baseball history as he prepares to become the first major league player to appear in the same game for both teams.
Jansen was in the lineup for the Toronto Blue Jays when they
faced Boston on June 26, a game that was suspended because of rain and scheduled to be made up on Monday. In the meantime,
he was traded to Boston, and Red Sox manager Alex Cora has said he will put Jansen in the lineup when the game resumes.
“Baseball has been around for so long, there’s so many things that’s happened in the game. So I was surprised when I found out I was the first,” Jansen said in the Red Sox clubhouse this weekend. “Any time you can be a part of this great game’s history, it’s pretty unique.”
