Otto Kemp HBP Four Times

WATCH: Otto Kemp gets hit by a pitch FOUR times last night in Lehigh Valley

Otto Kemp had himself an interesting and possibly record-breaking night last night with the Lehigh Valley IronPigs.

Kemp stepped up to the plate five times in the game, was hit by a pitch in four of those at-bats, and roped a double to stay red hot in the fourth inning.

WATCH: Otto Kemp gets hit by a pitch FOUR times last night

Otto Kemp last night for AAA Lehigh Valley:

1st Inning: Hit By Pitch

2nd Inning: Hit By Pitch

4th Inning: Double

6th Inning: Hit By Pitch

7th Inning: Hit By Pitch

Don’t quote me on this but I believe the record for most times a batter has been hit by a pitch in a single MLB game is three, and that record has been tied 36 times since 1900.

I think the same record holds for the Minor Leagues, which means Otto Kemp broke that last night by getting plunked four times? I rarely check stats and honestly, wouldn’t know where to start but feel free to look that up on your own time.

The Phillies need outfield help. Otto Kemp continues to impress. We’ll probably see Weston Wilson get the call before him (unfortunately) but if Kemp keeps producing, there’s a good chance we’ll see him in South Philly sooner than later.

Otto Kemp’s long road to Lehigh Valley will end in South Philly sooner than you think
