Wrong.

It’s fun to see this, but the pitchers who are worth a damn as hitters are very rare. Basically, most of the time, watching a pitcher hit is like watching the 2008 version of Turbo hit, except even worse.

On June 23, 2008, Felix was batting against one of the best pitchers on earth and hit a MOTHER FUCKING GRAND SLAM AND CAUSED EVERYONE TO FUCKING EXPLODE WITH JOY.

Just in case anyone was wondering Rick Wise in 1971 picthed a no hitter and hit two home runs in the same game.
