Bartolo Colon still can work a shutout inning, but he’s definitely not the most graceful pitcher in Major League Baseball.
The right-hander, who’s being used as a reliever for the New York Mets in the playoffs, has yet to make an appearance in their National League Championship Series against the Chicago Cubs. However, Colon still made some headlines thanks to a spill he took heading back to the clubhouse after the Mets’ Game 2 win Sunday.
Way to walk it off like a champ.
Despite the slip-up. the 42-year-old Colon has been a reliable reliever this postseason. He struck out the side on 14 pitches in one inning in Game 3 of the NL Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers and followed it with two scoreless innings in Game 4.
