MEXICO CITY – Whatever happens this weekend at Estadio Alfredo Harp Helú with the Mexico City Series between the Giants and the Padres, history will be made. And we already saw it on Saturday in the first inning of the first game.
With a liner that came off his bat at 107.6 miles per hour and hit San Francisco pitcher Sean Manaea in the leg, Nelson Cruz produced the first two runs in the history of major league games held in the City of Mexico. With Manny Machado and Xander Bogaerts circulating, Cruz’s drive ricocheted into foul territory and the Giants defense didn’t have time to recover it in time to prevent both runners from crossing the plate.
In this way, Cruz is the author of the first two runs pushed in the Major Leagues in the Mexican capital, while Machado and Bogaerts are the protagonists of the first two scored in that sense.
