Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Rich Hill made history by becoming the oldest active player in Major League Baseball at 4.5 years old during his season debut against the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday. Hill’s return to the majors also marked a significant milestone, as he tied an MLB record for having played for his 14th different team in his career. The left-handed pitcher, who has played for 14 different MLB teams, made his Royals debut after being called up from Triple-A, joining the rotation for Michael Lorenzen, who was unavailable due to an injury. Hill pitched five innings, allowing six hits and three runs, with two walks and a strikeout, while being praised by his manager for his effort. The 21-year MLB veteran will attempt to make a lasting impact with the Royals, aiming to continue his career for as long as possible.
