The Chicago White Sox were getting beaten so bad by Texas during Tuesday night's game that they sent slugger Adam Dunn out to the mound to pitch for an inning and give the bullpen some rest.
The White Sox were down 15-0 to the Rangers, so they had nothing to lose by letting Dunn pitch for the first time in his major league career. Dunn faced five batters and allowed one run on two hits and a walk.
Both teams seemed to get a good chuckle out of Dunn's appearance. Although Dunn didn't do too badly out there, let's hope the White Sox don't need to send him out there again anytime soon.
