The ability to switch hit is already a special attribute, but switch-hitting with power from both sides of the plate is a rare skill indeed. Hall of Fame slugger Eddie Murray was one such hitter, and on June 9, 1990, he accomplished an extraordinarily rare feat in that vein.
Mick Gillispie told the story of Murray’s June 9 game – and how he became a switch hitter – in the sixth inning of Tennessee’s game with the Jacksonville Suns on Monday.
