Watch: Colon draws 1st career walk in record 282nd PA
Steve Mitchell-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters
It's been a wonder year for Bartolo Colon.
After launching the first home run of his 19-year career back in May, the heavyset 43-year-old crossed another remarkable milestone off his to-do list Monday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, earning the first walk of his lengthy career.
The fourth-inning, full-count walk ends a momentous streak for Colon, who went a record 281 plate appearances without a free base.
Pitch to him at your mercy.
