Hit by a pitch seven times in his first 15 games, the most in the majors since 1901, the rookie shortstop says he’s used to it and doesn’t mind.
MILWAUKEE — Zach Neto has heard the well-meaning advice, but he’s not taking it.
Neto has been hit by a pitch seven times already, which is the most times a player has been hit in his first 15 big league games since 1901. Neto didn’t draw a walk until Sunday, but he but he still finished the game with a .350 on-base percentage to go with his .250 batting average. Neto’s distinctive leg kick might also be a part of the equation. He said he has already got his foot down by the time the ball hits him, so he doesn’t think the leg kick is preventing him from getting out of the way, but it could be a distraction for the pitcher.
